will there be scales for the practice day?

and are the scales level enough to be accurate for corner weighting a car in addition to total weight?

not questioning if they are accurate for total weights (take that as a given), but i wanted to check corner weights.

tia, tom

RA scales only measure one axle at a time.

The test day is sanctioned by Road Atlanta, not Atlanta Region. We will not be setting up the scales until Thursday evening, so they will not be available for the test day.

And as Kolin mentioned, we do one axle at a time (even though that means we must weigh the driver separately). Not the most elegant thing around, but it's consistent and works pretty well.
