[s-cars] What does an s-car weigh????

[Trevor Frank]

Hmm, looks like your car is't heavier than mine about 10lb before I
replaced the seats, now about 110lb's.  Also if you had coil overs you
could at least attempt to get you weights better, with the driver.  I
got mine down to about a 50lb spread side to side on the fronts and less
than that for cross weighting, something silly like less than 5 in the
back.  The real killer is that you cannot do much about the front sway
bar.

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
