[QUOTE="David Hester, post: 9618576, member: 6794"] SCCA A/Sedan car must weigh 3080 with driver. In impound my last race with it, mine weighed 3092 with me and 6 gallons of fuel left in the tank. I did have one race at Nashville a couple of years ago, I was actually light by 4 lbs- 3076. Forgot to refuel before I went out (22 gallon cell and I would normally put in 10 gallons to do qualifying/race 4-5 gallons per session. Gas was my ballast. Had run 8 gallons out.) They let me pass because of =/- tolerance on the scales. They hadn't been certified in awhile. That would make a '87 Notchback Fox body road racer weigh 2900 ish with about 1/4 tank of fuel- 22 gal fuel cell. Knock off 6 lb/gallon and it was under 2900, maybe 2870 lbs with nothing but oil/ water. At one time, I had 80 lbs of lead and extra fuel to make the 3180 we had to weigh one year. BTW no Lexan -Glass windshield, side windows and rear. No glass in the doors, crash bar is, though.
