Mikes car only weighs about 100lbs more than my car does, and he probably weighs 20lbs more than me.
Yeah I weighed my car at a dump site a couple of years ago. I wish I paid more attention, but I calculated it out to be 3040 lbs without me in the car and with no gas.

With me in it, and about 1/4 tank (tad more), I think my race weight would be about 3275 lbs. I want to go back and get a proper weight again.

What do you guys figure your cars weigh?

WTF your car is that light in race trim?! Damn!!! We weigh pretty close to each other - man to man, but my car is easily over 100 lbs heavier on the track than yours!

Go light em up Mikey!!

Mine was 3,240lbs on a CAT Truckers scale. That included me (185lbs), full interior, spare/jack, 1/2 tank of fuel, 20lb tool bag, 20lbs of work related items, 25lbs of SFCs welded to the car, and 17s.

Mike did you have lead in your shoes when you stepped on the scale lol.

Anyways my car is 3020 with me in it in normal street trim at the track with 1/4 tank. Thats with just the spare removed. All seats and everything else are still intact. Also remember thats with stillen RSB and stage 2 WSP SFCs which are about 15lbs and 30lbs respectively.
