That means to run C it would need to be 3775. As I have already explained, that would be over 700 lbs. of ballast. This would make the car technically illegal and unsafe too.

This is a link to an on-going project that I have with Chevrolet. I have noted a lot of weights of things that we removed. Note that just the wheels and tires are over 240 lbs.!!

These cars are not even close to Stockers. If I were to convert them, they would easily be 3,000 lbs. including driver.
