Ok i'm trying to find the real weight of these(my) car's. All i can find is 3311lbs, and if i take the GVWR 4239 and subtract the max passenger load of 701 I get 3538lbs. Now i weighed it last year at the track and it came in at 3450lbs with the 3/4 tank and very heavy 17x11's, and i had removed about 150lbs(could be less) from her before that. So 3538lbs seem's right to me, but...
The National Time Trial(NASA) director tells me he has this car list from the NHTSA at 3408lbs (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) The rule package is such that i could show up with a car thats 70% gutted and only get 1+ point's for weight reduction (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) if i do it 1 way, or +4 to 8 for the other way. So basiclly i need to find an accurate weight for these car's with all the options on them! Anybody know where? |

QUOTE IIRC I weighed my car without the CC1 panels and it was about 3350 lbs. Car has *all* options (including trunk cd changer) except traction control. This was back in 2003 so I don't remember the fuel situation. Either your car is super light or you didn't have a ton of gas in it. My car alone with every option except the CD changer, no muffler or exhaust after the axle, headers (lighter then those cast iron beasts) , 17x11 ZR1 knock offs (a little more weight there), and a full tank of gas weighed 3425 in Toledo last year. And Lonnie can confirm it! I'll probably weigh it again in AR this year if I can for free, since I've done a little bit more to reduce weight since Toledo. |
