Just out of interest are your back seats out permanently or do you just remove them for track days?

Just for trackdays. Helps with carrying the track wheels, lose about 25kgs, and you get a very racey exhaust noise!

I cant get wheels in from the front anymore, as the bucket seats do not recline forward. So everything has to shoved in from the boot. Back killer!!

Thats why a handle on the tyre cover, will help pulling them out.

Bend the knee's when lifting, that'll sort the old back out!

I'm quite tempted to remove most of the interior for a weight loss but just cant bring myself to do it as it's not just a pure track car (Glendog will tell you it's not a road car either!

).

Are you front seats re-trimmed Pole Positions and are they lighter than the standard CSL front seats?

Thats why i put everything back in again.

Cannot live with the noise too much on the road. Only takes 5 minutes to take it out.
The pole positions weigh 15 kgs each, with the mounts. Not sure how mucht he CSL seats weigh, about 20kgs?
Just the middle part is retrimmed to imola red leather.
