Thought I'd share my findings on my car's weight as I prepare to have my 
Bilsteins revalved. Gracious thanks to Dave Jones and Brendan Rudak at Autosport 
Werks for their time and help with their corner weighting scales. Total weight 
in the middle.     

     1153          1101
               3715          No driver and 1/2 tank of gas with all 
nonessentials removed ie. spare tire,                                     tools, stuff, 
etc.
     725          735

     
     1230          1130
               3920          Adds the very svelte driver from Everboost;-)
     800          760

If we subtract the weight of 8 gallons of fuel at 6 lbs per gallon that's 
another 48 lbs from the total weight. That gives a dry weight of 3667 lbs. Who 
says this car weighs too much?

Hap, on the calculator in Everboost, Maguire
