        That wouldn't be such a great idea. From what I've read (and discussed with my engineer buddies), the spare tire is part of the rear crash structure. The "crumple zone" is designed to work with a spare tire in place.

        Once you remove the spare, who knows what would happen if you had a major rear collision? Would there be greater risk of fuel tank rupture? Who knows?

          Showing up, racing and enjoying a beer. Everyone is much easier to get along with at the track since they check their internet egos at the gate. He raced today and had a great time, as did the rest of us. It just one the interwebz is seriuz biznes.
