| You’ll have to find some creative ways to hold the dry ice on the vertical surfaces. Notice all the material over the wheel wells. |
Leave the dry ice on the tar for about 2-5 minutes, or until the tar gets a white frost on the surface. Take a hammer and give it a couple of decent whacks (not hard enough to dent the floorboards though) and simply peel it off with your hands. Some parts were a little harder to remove, and required some persuasion from a chisel, but for the most part, it came off with the “hammer and pull” technique. Work your way around the car, and before you know it your interior will be devoid of sound deadening.

| “Holy wheel gaps Batman!” Did we take a wrong turn and start a rally-car build? |
Make sure to drive the car around the block with no sound deadening and no interior (don’t forget to reinstall the seat and belts) to enjoy the sounds of a true racecar. Anything that has potential to make a peep will be heard, from gravel hitting the fenders, to the brake pads engaging the rotors, you will hear it all and might be able to diagnose a couple of problems with your ears. Plus, we’re sure you can find some fun activities to take part in with your new found suspension travel. We gained at least an inch from the weight loss.
Stay tuned as next time we will tackle the hardest and most trying part of racecar prep: the roll cage.
