considering my C2 cab weighs 3450 with fuel, 19's, and a supercharger.... that's pretty light.

Had mine corner balanced and aligned at the same time. Fordahl Motorsports did the work and compensated for driver by adding 140 lbs. of weight during process. Including added weight to car w/ half tank of gas final weight: 3,296 lbs.

Free HP!

Dep-dog,
Could I be trying to compensate? Downside: Not being bigger. Upside: Free horsepower . This was a great situation for Motorcycle road racing too! Yeh, it's true but through no fault on not eating enough.
FYI, the final weight of the car was based on utilization of the stock OE sport seats. Car is slightly lighter now with Euro GT3 seats. IMO, they feel only about 20 lbs lighter each when I installed.
