So out of interest I got the car weighed yesterday. 1480KG (+-10kg) with the fuel light on and without me in it.

So with a bit of fuel and me weighing 130kg the car weighs around 1630KG. (approx 3600lbs)

My GC8 weighed 1231 without me and that managed 10.90 with 430whp.


My real target is to beat that with a 10.89 or quicker which I haven't done yet. There will be more visits to the strip until that's achieved.

Given the 10.97 i did its easily doable I just have to get my shit together and drive it better.

Wow, that's not a light car by any stretch. 10s in a 1.5t car that takes the kids to school in the morning. Impressive

It was the nearest one to me and they certify the weight.

What. Im just saying Daz could have driven to SMRC on the end of bannister rd canningvale for example, and gone on the weigh bridge there. Then turn around and drive over the 2nd wiegh bridge on the way out to check against the first for accuracy. And it would have cost nothing, and probably been closer to home. Just sayin'

It's only $25 I think I can stretch to that, just.
