IROCNROL1 - I don't think you have any idea of who and what you're up against.

We just removed the back seat and ripped out the window cranks.
That superfluous headliner is history too.
The rear tires are coated with PAM.
A friction-reducing 0.005" layer of Crisco covers the entire vehicle, including the tire sidewalls (Man, that is good for the paint).
The vertical antenna mast has been bent back at a 45 degree angle to help aerodynamics. It might have one or two extra kinks, but it's still race-worthy.
The front bumper is gone.
To keep the unsprung weight down, we've removed every other wheel lugnut.
The a.m. radio is a tough one to lose, but with race day calling, it might be a casualty of racing success.

This puppy will definitely run 17s now.
