Haven't had one in the front of my car for weeks, thanks for reminding me to put it back.

I never had one in my car...too much weight, never held me back or gave me any cause for concern...if your car flies of the track cos the spare isn't in the front...lol...I think not.

no problem sometimes i dont even know why i carry one because my rear wheels would never fit in the frunk!! dont even think my front wheels would fit their either !! (17")

It's fine to leave the spare wheel at home. Remember to take your rear bulbs out to balance the car though!

I've never had one in mine and have seen no notable adverse affects, on the 1/4 mile too.

These things run surprisingly smoothly on the track to be honest. Once you get the power down of course...

You might aswell remove the passenger seat whilst you're at it. I've run Pod with the spare and without, no noticeable difference though.

removing the front spacesaver tyre will affect the weight in the front by around 2%.

a knats chuff of difference.

My old rev4 I noticed a big difference on turn in without the spare in the frunk. Strangely on the rev3's I've had it's been fine, which leads me to conclude the suspension must have been knackered on that car!
