And how much does the driver weigh? Inquiring minds want to know. ;)Quote:
How much ballast are you putting in the 1st gen RX-7s? I'm guessing 20 pounds or so.

In the 240SX the driver weighs 170 and we have about 50 or so lbs of ballast, in the RX-7 I cannot remember how much we added but it was more than 20, if I remember it was somewhere around 50lbs.Quote:
I'm also curious, but about the 240. And, if I may ask, what is the driver's weight with that ballast?

Jude has a real knack for building light cars and prides himself on it. Our AS Camaro that we built last year was siginificantly under weight.
My Pinto weighs 2260 lbs. (empty)
+ Me (150 lbs)
+ 90 lbs ballast
= 2500 lbs (that is 10 lbs over the min weight of 2490)
Not that you would want to race a Pinto :dead_horse:
I wouldn't hit a clean Jetta in the ass with a pinto,....aaaa what a minute... :unsure:...never mind... <_<
With 200 lb driver and 1/8 tank of fuel, car is 95 lbs heavy. Thinking about spending a year in Ethiopia to make weight. :lol:
