Yeah, I wish I could ballast the car with fuel as well! ...it was ~35lbs underweight with a full tank.

I'm starting to believe that the scales I used are somewhat inaccurate...it's possible?? It's a good setup, gues I'll verify via the scales at the track. Manny, yes, I figured out the "official scale" thing at the PCA race in Iowa last Summer - my car BARELY made weight, although previous weighing of my vehicle had it in the "OK" range.

My first item of consideration will be to get over onto the scales ASAP, that way I can address the issue with plenty of time to spare.

Oddjob, thanks for the clarification...I apparently missed that as I had scanned the numbered section for guidelines/rules in stock classes - thanks again!

FWIW, that statement leaves the whole ballast thing WIDE OPEN as to securing it in the passenger compartment.

I didn't have much of a choice. Being a dumb rookie and all, I didn't weigh the car until I got to the Glen and figured I could throw ballast in the trunk, later realizing that it had to be in the passenger compartment. At the track, my options were limited. Fortunately, the consequences of having those loose rotors was zero.

Skip (swftiii) - Oh, I have a whole stack of flash card excuses.

Maybe you should eat a few more burgers and dogs from the Cafe' Justin

How about some 26" spinners to round out your race "trim". That ought to get you closer to the weight.

BTW: Mark and Rebecca are going to bring the wheels.

EXCELLENT on the wheels Justin...figure gallavanting around VIR in the rain on HOOSIERS is not for me - it just didn't work yesterday, and I'm certain it won't this weekend...that is...IF it rains!??

I hope it does NOT...thank you very much.

Oh yeah, those burgers and dogs did a lot for my "diet".

Mark, I feel ya...would've done the same thing.

You know it would be a riot to show up to PCA club race with 20" spinners
... Even better if you could wrap them in Hoosier or slicks!

Jeff Curtis

Damnit Justin! I thought we had a "pact"...blood brothers and all ya know??

It was SUPPOSED to be a secret that I was outfitting my C2 with "DUBS", spinners at that...now you've ruined all the surprise...damn, guess I'll just go back to wearing the Fikses.

Some people's kids, I swear.
