I suspect only the spare could legally be left in - the rest may not qualify as adequately secured, since it's just pressure-fit into the foam. With the cover it may be enough, but that's just held in by gravity. The foam, of course, must stay no matter what.


I find the car performs nominally better below 1/8 tank - something just feels better on fast transitions, and I have a tiny bit more control over yaw with the pedals. Stuff in the trunk? no thanks!
