Default 1st time at the track..REMOVE HOOD..

The OEM hood weighs about 35lbs.

Can I get some opinions on racing without the hood on.

Wish I had a CF hood.

Can I get some opinions on racing without the hood on. [Thumbs down all the way.Not trying to rag on your thread just giving you a mature honest answer to your question.Racing without your hood is not only illegal but its retarded]

Wish I had a CF hood.</TD></TR></TABLE>&lt;---Now youre getting somewhere.Save 35 pounds which is cool and looks better than no hood!

youd look like a ricer and ur car would not be noticeably faster. if youre serious about weight reduction, take out everything on the interior and then worry about exterior stuff..

Find a carbon fiber hood. No hood's ghetto. I got one on eBay for $100 picked up.

You could be serious about weight reduction, but that's just ridiculous if your car's semi-nice.
