I went to my local truck weight station today that is saposed to be real acurate and weighed my car. It weighed 3438 lbs with me out and 3600 even with me in it. Just wondering if you have weighed your car, what did your's weigh?

right at 3400 with me in it(150lbs), pro stars all around and a half a tank of gas. Some weight is getting added with the transmission and nitrous swap right now. Id say it will be closer to 3600 when im done. I would like to get it back down to 3200 with me in it.

Suprisingly I weighed my car and it was 329x lb w/o me, 343x lb w/ me in it. 1/2 tank. No weight reductions, and 18s at the time. It should be 10-15lbs more since I added bigger swaybars- solid strano bar at the front and bigger hollow bar at the rear.

When you go up there do you tell em you just wanna weigh your car? Do you get some kind of slip?

I'm sure it varies wherever you go. The one i used was a gas station/ truck stop. I just asked them to use it (just in case) and afterwards they gave me a slip with the weight. Had to pay like $9 or something like that.

That would be funny if you weighed yourself like that everyday instead of buying a scale for the bathroom
