but i haven't posted on here in quite a while and, since the last time, i have thrown my car on the good ol' cat scales. i'd like to actually upload a pic of my scale ticket, but i don't have internet at my new apartment yet, so i'm at the library and i'm just gonna tell you.

drumrolllll....



it's 2200 on the dot. a little over 1300 front and seven something rear. i really want to relocate my battery to the back even more after seeing that distribution, but still. booyah.

That is great information - I think I will lower the air pressure in my rear tires a little.
I had a 59 Lancia Flaminia that had almost exactly equal weight on the rear wheels as on the fronts. It had the clutch/transmission/differential and brake drums all mounted under the floor of the trunk. A thin flexible driveshaft spinning at engine rpm, ran from the engine, back to the clutch/tranny/differential.
It handled beautifully, with almost perfectly neutral steering, but the layout probably tripled the complexity of the driveline.

want to try to cut more weight? LOL

of course... and we both know it'll be happening soon enough. GOODBYE A/C, POWER STEERING, AND OTHER RANDOM CRAP
