how heavy are your cars?
Well,
Im about to put my car on a scale because even with 20psi through the 427, well it doesn't feel that quick to me maybe im crazy I don't know. Im looking for a scale here locally to find out how heavy my pig is, that might be the culprit. With that said I cant always get full traction in 3rd gear with the NT05 tires on 20" wheels, 2nd gear is impossible for obvious reasons. So im wondering whats the average weight for a FI Camaro, and where is all the additional weight coming from?

Im 4112 lbs and did a corner balance with Justice Pete when we did my ZL1 Pedders sways and adjustable camber links.
Ended up within 6 lbs on all 4 corners. LF 1093 RF 1094 LR 965 RR 960 This car is perfectly balanced.. Road course guy/street car not a 1/4 junkie. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=300581

where is all the weight coming from here is my question, isn't a stock SS supposed to weigh 3800? someone correct me if im wrong, the ZL1 is 4150 stock "supposedely". This is a single cab truck weight category and is really pissing me off. Im trying to do weight reduction mods without upsetting the cars front to rear balance since its much easier to take weight off the back.

4400 lbs with me in the car... 235 lbs... We also have the eight point cage, the frame for the fuel cell, and numerous other add ons... We have not removed anything from the car other than the rear seat belts...nine inch, four fuel pumps, two turbos, all the piping and the intercooler etc...

do you have a thread on the list of weight reduction mods you've done so far I would be very interested! Also is this the ECS car in your signature?
