In FS/AC, It will weigh 3,350 pounds. 10.50 Index. And NO penalty via the AHFS.

Let's see...add sixty-five pounds...get a two-tenths softer Index...and the ability to run as fast as you want, with no AHFS penalty.

Yeah...I'd run the FSCS too...lol.


Not a knock on David (or anyone in FSCS) for doing what they do. That is flying at 8.90. Without a blower, too! Wonder how close other cars were to AA, BB etc weight.
Mike, where are you getting your 3285 minimum weight. The Guide shows 3200 lbs. (7.11X450HP=3199.5 lbs.) BB is 7.00 - 7.49, to run at the class minimum weight; he would weigh 3150 lbs (7.00X450HP=3150 lbs.)
