Well we took the Ghettomaro down to Panoz racing at the Texas Motor Speedway. A friend worked there and had access to some 4 corner scales, so we setup today to drive it down there and get her weighed up.
We zeroed the scales, set her down, and I was elated when I heard the numbers. Here are two pictures to show the breakdown, but for the cliff notes, 2874 without me, 3001 with me. I weigh 130 on the bathroom scale (don't laugh) so the scales seem to be dead on. The front/rear weigh distribution is the only killer. Can you say donut machine?

Be sure to take note of the Home Depot sewer coupling/stove vent pipe cold air intake... what a joke. -Kyle |

Wow that is light Kyle.
Moving the battery to the back may help with distribution, but will add weight overall. Why not just put a light battery up front? |
