That's quite specific. Thanks. Ha.
I think there is a thread on weights where they were building out a table with everyone who had weighed in.

Hooray, I'm not imagining things. Maybe you could share here as well?

I recommend losing unnecessary internal organs and digits too.

Car weighs 2050 without passenger seat. I weight 222. passenger seat weights about 28 lbs.

Gary, your cross weight is 50.0%, not 50.9%!

Thanks for clarifying. I'll fix the table in the weights thread.

That's heavier then I would have expected... did you add a lot of steel for the wing mount/bumper? fire suppression? I know you went fuel cell but how large?
I was hoping to weigh in at 1900 lbs. Maybe that's not realistic.

You can with an R if you work at it....hard.

Agree, with an R I am confident I will be around 1900 or a touch less. I haven't weight the car with all the radiator and TMIC ducting sheet metal on the car or wing or wing mount and I am under 1800lb with out those items.

We are at 1770 with all of those items plus a few, so you should be fine.

I had to weigh my car at the dump in order to title it, so take this number for what it is.
1,960 full tank of gas, nobody in it.

Nice, that's pretty good. On the lighter end of most builds.
