Staring a on ongoing weight thread. Post a weight, and I’ll add it the this first post.

Remember- 100 pounds = 10 horse power = 1/10 of a second in a quarter mile = one car length in a quarter mile

For all around performance- every pound matters.

Thanks for the links Rod. Updated OP with addl. numbers.
 
So does anybody know if the seat weights are cloth or leather, or manual vs. power? I'm not interested in shedding weight, but am curious?
 
Some of these numbers from the older threads I question

If you know correct numbers or have a clue what the numbers should be closer to then just update them. :LOL:

This thread is going to be a work in progress.

I agree on some, but I think this is a good working list.
Moving forward if anyone has any weights to add or verify, please do so to the tenth of a pound. That way any number on the list that has a decimal point can be considered verified.
