Well I saw a CAT scale today and decided to weigh the old girl.. man she is kinda hefty...

3200 LBS

This is a 97 SE AUTO:

spare and jack and misc tools
2 12's and enclosure
2 amps in trunk
leather interior and dual power seats up front
18 inch konig toxxins with toyo t-1s
**edit** a little less than 1/2 tank of gas

thorw my butt in there and then it goes to about 3360.. so the old girl is toting some weight

I put down 178 HP and 177 TQ.. what is the hp to weight and tq to weight ratio's?

I think I will look for 1 of steve's posts gotta be a formula in there

 

No wonder I'm still faster than jOO...

 

WOW! Really? I weighed in at 2995 with a 85 lbs sub setup, and no spare (can't fit both in the trunk, one or the other), with about 1/2 tank of gas.

 

well we will see .. I might drop the spare and subs to do the local 1/8 mile track to get a time\



sin- I edited my post.. I had about 1/2 tank of gas

 

Wow, mine weighed 3055lb on a Cat scale. Of course I've got a 5 speed, only have one power seat, no stereo, stock 15s, and a 1/4 tank of gas. I do have 25lbs worth of SFCs hanging below though.

That's really weird that your car weighs a lot more, you have less power than me, and you're an auto and we both get roughly the same ETs. The trap speeds are way different though.

dave my best et is a 15.6 @89 mph and that was with all the weight in the car, but different tires.. kumho's

But that was with out the VI

I am hoping for 15.23-15.4 @ 92 MPH
