Default Weighed the car tonight

I did mess up however. I did not know we were going to get them weighed tonight kind of a spur thing so before I got the car out I filled the tank as full as possible since the weekend is going to be nice and I did not want to have to stop again. With the tank completely full I weighed in at 3540
My friend with a similiar setup weighed 3620 on an empty tank. I was really hoping to be 3350-3400 but I guess I have some more work to do.

gas weighs roughly 6 lbs per gallon. so if you filled up your tank you would have around 15 gallons correct? 15x6=90. 3540-90=3450. so empty tank you should be at 3450. getting close to your goal.
