Dr Concrete Member 69 Member For: 19y 11m 19d Location: Adelaide Posted 17/04/06 03:08 AM Share Posted 17/04/06 03:08 AM heyI'm considering removing the rear tray on my 2005 xr6 turbo ute as a method of improving the handling of the ute, what do you reckon?. Also how much does the xr6 ute try weigh? Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/24769-removing-ute-tray/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just ask Wayno, he’ll testify how good the sandbags in the back are.

Dr Concrete Member 69 Member For: 19y 11m 19d Location: Adelaide Posted 17/04/06 09:48 AM Author Share Posted 17/04/06 09:48 AM I just thought the whole concept of weight reduction would make the ute go faser around a track. Maybe handling will be worse, but a faster lap time still might be achieved.
