    How much ballast are you putting in the 1st gen RX-7s? I'm guessing 20 pounds or so.

    I'm also curious, but about the 240. And, if I may ask, what is the driver's weight with that ballast?

    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.

    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.

    And how much does the driver weigh? Inquiring minds want to know.
