Okay, just got back from Raceware Motorsports, a race-prep shop in
Bellevue and had my car corner-weighed on thier scale. Drumroll
please... my 1995 S6 Avant tipped the scales at 4,094 lbs (with
driver)!
Here's the specs:
Factory weight: 3,924 lbs (Audi published spec)
Scale weight of car (with driver: 150 lbs in driver's seat): Half tank
of gas (exactly) and spare tire in car (as that's how it will be on a
daily basis)
Front: 2,339
Rear: 1,755
Gross Weight: 4,094
Cross Weight: 2,018 (49.2%)
Front: 57.1%
Rear: 42.9%
Left: 51.2%
Right: 48.8%
LF 1,207 RF 1,131
LR 886 RR 869
Pretty much in line with my expectations and gross weight number looks
right on. I guess I would have expected the wagon to have more of a
55/45 weight distribution, so I was expecting better balance as I know
it has an extra 150-200lbs of weight in the back opposed to the sedans.
Hope this information is helpful.
Later,
