How many pilot cars do you think are built without options and weighed with minimal gas in the tank?

They don't roll off the showroom floor as a BIW if they are passed off as street legal instead of purpose built for racing like a COPO.
So this 2015 Camaro SS does not have to weigh what the MVMA specs say but all the older stockers in the classguide are based on the MVMA shipping weight.
