And my vote is:

605/155 without me = 256bhp/ton and if I cleaned it, I may get below 600kg

I take it that all these weights are with a full tank and all fluids present, Not like cateringvans specs?

Gezz, Mine's an SE, think I'm going to have to get stripping some bits out to get it down to your weight Matt!

My road car is about 580-590kg SEiW with a Zetec carpets boot box and lid squishie seats. The race car is stripped out with anything that is not required and is about 540-550Kg   :t-up:

My weight figure is wet with half a tank of fuel, which is more than it usually has in it......

That's depressing me to know that Blatters :(  As I always weigh mine full, I was hoping that was one of the reason's it was so heavy was because everybody else weighed theirs empty - Doh!

Drastic measures are called for me thinks.

A full tank would see mine nudging 600Kg's. Still, I only need a couple of new cams to see 260-270bhp... :p:p:D:D

Interesting stuff

Just to add one that will interest the speed series boyz,

Tom Whitaker's Millington engined car,

300bhp(Genuine!!!!;)/.0620=483bhp/ton. Not bad for a genuine road going car, carpets & all.

ooooh, I'll add that one to the list...

I'm impressed. All that money on a Millington Diamond block, and it still weighs over 600Kg's. Oh the irony.... :D:D:D

Prolly using the same theory as me.  3st overweight = no point in a lighter alloy bits unless I'm prepared to drop the weight myself first.

In other words:  All weight issues can be addressed by the addition of more bhp.  That way you can have your pie and eat it.  :t-up:
