Are formulas lighter than trans am's?
 

I tried a search but nothing came up.

Yes by about 30lbs i think

how so?

because trans ams have a body kit. they have ground effects, a different front fascia and a spoiler. all this adds up to the trans ams weighing more than formulas.

ah ok...

ditto on that remark.... plus TRANS AM's have that bird on their car in several places and that alone takes up weight :)

Yes they are lighter but not enough to show a performance difference
Trans Am's have T-tops and Leather seats standard over what the standard Formula has otherwise it's the body kit and Wing and those don't add up to too much. Probably within 50 lb's of each other unless the Formula has T- tops and Leather also, then it will be closer.

:eyes: They don't have anymore of them than the Formula or even a v6 bird does.

wow, someone actually took me seriously

lol, if that was the case, all the skinny guys would have 11 sec 1/4s!

the trans am hatch weighs a good bit more than the formula hatch i imagine with all the extra stuff a t/a has as far as hardware brackets and body kit there is a good weight diffrence im thinking a good 150 lbs

formulas are lighter, how much? dunno i haven't put them both on the scale so oh well

I? was kind of surprised too.

the hatch is the biggest significant difference in weight

3540 (55.9/44.1 f/r)on DOT scales with 3/4 tank of gas.

loaded except for no 12-disk. With a 6-speed.

Post em' up!

bingo!

actually bigger difference than i thought.. bout 50 lbs

gotcha, now i have the info. thats gotta be the reason why camaros win :jest:

maybe if we put a sandbag in the back of our cars, it would make up the weight :confused:
