Awesome... I crossed the scales at 3127 with me in the car and a little over 1/2 tank at impoud last time out. I'm around 237 so figure 245-250 with gear on. Car is around 2880 lbs currently. 2700 is what the Panoz weighs.

EDIT: Min comp weight for my class is 3118lbs... didn't expect to be that light post cage and fire system and cool-shirt etc.

I mean.. the car is still really like for the power band and why would it matter how they responded?? bc it is still super light and it's his build and you directed your comment about weighing it as it were to him.. there is no one else to direct that to.

let the kid enjoy his build. jesus.

If it's not 26XX shit is getting removed. Cage will be heavy as I don't play when it comes to safety but I still have all the sound deadening material in it and a couple things that could come out if need be.

No... I must ruin all builds that are not Corvette!

But seriously you're reading something in that isn't there. I wasn't sure why he was scaling the car with so much crap off of it. Makes sense that he wanted a ballpark to start picking suspension bits.
