oh... about weight to "fit" the class ?
Took the car to the scale finally.
No ballast, 4 gallons of fuel, with me in the car...
NOW it sort of makes sense...
1930 / 1740... 3670
For C Stock, my minimum weight over the scale would be 3635
For D Stock, ...... 3828
I'm 20 something pounds over weight... should I go on a diet, and run with no ballast in C ?!!!
Or, should accept my "middle age spread", add 150 pounds of stratigically placed weight to the car, and run in D ?
I know the ballast would make it launch better, but I always like the speed out the back door... and the car is heavy enough... lighter is easier on chassis parts.
Guees my question could be, can a car hook properly, with the front / rear weight distribution that this car has as is ?
( oh, the reason for my arror in my previous weight info, is that I forgot that last time I had weighed the car, that weight bar was in the rear bumper )
