Is that with AC? How full was the gas tank? Assuming you weren't in the car? I'm interested to see what mine weighs. It seems like everytime I find something to remove, I've got 3 more things to add.
specific enough for ya? :) |
re-occurring theme. Keep the battery in the RR :)

No fucking way!
Is that without you in the car? Me thinks that scale needs calibrated .... Mine as I drove it back from Pikes Peak where I bought it from. I weighed it with a full tank and some clothes and it weighed 2090, so when I got home I took out my jack/spare tire |
No picture, but another data point since I recently dug out the sheet:
Corner weights (with 158 lb driver) were: Code:
Left Right |

AC, power steering (with cooler), 50 pounds of insulation, front skid plate, 3 inch radiator core, 1 gallon surge tank, heavy Taurus fan, and a half tank of fuel. Add 220 or so for me and 105 for her.

That's without me in it. It goes to 50.02% cross with me in the car. |

I guess I should update this with a finalized weight. This is before I actually corner weighted the car, but in fighting trim, no driver.

Wow, tpwalsh. It's really wild to see the spread in weights in this thread, from the same basic chassis.

I assume this is your DP AutoX car, amazing how light you can get the 1.6L w/o expensive stuff like fuel cell, body kit,... Nice re-location of your gauge cluster :-) I wish I had a pic of the corner weight on my car, it's 1924 lbs wet, including 40 lbs ballast, over 50% rear wt biased. Unfortunately It's corner-weighted for all 255 lbs of me :-( (I'll add another 25 lbs ballast when I finally start using Avon slicks). |

When I thought about flipping it upside down, suddenly it had a perfect spot. 20 minutes, and a fabbed up bracket later, it fit perfectly. :) 25lbs when going to Avons? Why? |

7 lbs for less fuel. Did you get much from undercoating? I wonder if it's true you can get 30 lbs from acid dipping a bare tub, and a re-paint. Seems like a good thing to do if you're stripping to bare tub. |
I didn't realize that the Avons were that much lighter than the A6's.
I haven't touched the undercoating yet. It wouldn't surprise me if it's 30+ pounds. |
