'89 200q weight results



Haudi,

The unit:  early '89 (MC1, etc), all stock, 30-lb trailer hitch, 6x15 BBS
with 215-60-15 Comp TA HR4/2, 8 gallons gas, 15-lb first-aid kit in trunk
(forgot to take out).

Weights taken with a 4-wheel race-car scale. I was given lotsa guff about
bringing such a "porky" car out; many rigs were 1800-2000 lbs--WITH DRIVER.

Empty (lbs)
LF 993   RF 963
LR 703   RR 728

With driver
LF 1093  RF 966
LR 789   RR 757

Change
LF 100   RF   3
LR  86   RR  29

Notice how nearly all the weight (85%) is borne by the left (driver's)
side. Also note the discrepancy:  the compooter was optimistic with my
weight (218 lbs measured vs ~250 lbs actual).

hth and
