I'd check the scales,but they are NHRA scales and 2 small block dusters on the same scales were within 10lbs. Both small blocks,both all steel and the only difference is the amount of fuel in the tank.Yes it sounds better to up your weight to make you think your making some real HP,but I'll stick to reality.


I also have doubts of the reality there. I am in the 2900 area with glass hood and frt bumper, no interior, heater or wiper motor. Also all crash bars in doors gone and the shock mountings and reinforcement for the bumpers gone on my Duster. I only weigh 135 soaking wet with my winter clothes on so don't get much over 3000 in race weight.

I NV all you guys. 4130 w/driver and 1/2 tank of fuel - ugh!



I thought I had the Tank of Tanks. My 65 Sport Fury was just over 4000 lbs. with me in it.
Knocking on the 10 second door I needed to drop
a couple hundred lbs.

Crizila,
At 4130 you are the King Tank.
Anything bigger and you would be a truck.

76 Volare,340,iron heads,roots blower,subframe connecters,1 3/4" roll bar,weld wheels,3" exhaust,manual steering and brakes,stock interior. 3890w/me,3710 empty. I know, I can't believe it weighs that much either. I've weighed it many different times and places. Always 3850-3890 depending on fuel load. All OE equipment in dash including a/c evaporator and heater.It's amazing that it's gone 11.05@124.

My 67 coronet was 3580 with me on the scale at vegas.
I weighed the exhaust when I took it off and it was 52 lbs, so I guess now race weight, all it, is about 3530.
Full cage, two poly seats, all factory glass, wiper motor removed, carpeted interior.

I'm not questioning anybodies weights but it does make me wonder how similar cars as mine weigh so much lighter with less light weight parts. I just weighed my car on individual intercomp wheel scales that had just come back from being certified.

71 Dart 3240 pounds w/out me.
383 w/ iron heads, 727 and 8 3/4 rear.
8 point roll bar
Full interior, bucket seats front & rear bench.
Aluminum radiator.
Late model starter.
Light weight alternator.
Fiberglass front bumper and hood.
Wilwood brake calipers.
Heater core removed.
Light weight wheels & tires.
Fuel cell.
