loosing some weight im getting ready to run at the track in a couple weeks was thinking about taking some weight off..its gonna be in the shop for some minor stuff..so figured on taking out the a/c and rear seat and of course the sub box and amp. would it be worth doing the a/c and can i take the backing and some padding out of the carpet to make it like the light weight carpet
I guess thats a matter of opinion. A/C and sound deadner is a nice chunk of weight off, but those are two items that I cannot live without. If it was a track only car, then definitely take it out.

As posted above, whether you do it or not depends on the intended use of the car.
