stay in that class then the driver/owner will have to work it out to either have the shipping weight reviewed
or the car will have to run at the next class.I'm not ragging on large people but let's face it.It isn't a perfect world,we can't always get what we want.Many moons ago my ambition was to join the NYPD.I wore contact lenses at the time and took the written test,which i passe with flying colors.Long story short,
20/30 vision uncorrected,I didn't meet the standard,just as someone who was ,lets say fond of eating,
couldn't scale a 6' wall.I accepted that fact and moved on.If your size prevents you from making the max weight either change combos,have the shipping weight verified or just move down one class.It's not rocket science you know.
Again any large starred people don't take my post as a stab at you but we all can't always get what we want in life.

But that 130-140# still keeps you in a class without having to go down a class,correct?

Sounds like your car is a better TOP STOCK car at 8.25 than an A/SA at 8.00.If you dropped to B/SA,I bet you would break a lot of parts.
