Tigger Posted July 7, 2004 Share Posted July 7, 2004 And my vote is: 605/155 without me = 256bhp/ton and if I cleaned it, I may get below 600kg Tigger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigger Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 I take it that all these weights are with a full tank and all fluids present, Not like cateringvans specs? Tigger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigger Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 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! Tigger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Seabrook Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 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!Tigger 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatman Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 My weight figure is wet with half a tank of fuel, which is more than it usually has in it...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigger Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 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. Tigger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatman Posted July 9, 2004 Share Posted July 9, 2004 A full tank would see mine nudging 600Kg's. Still, I only need a couple of new cams to see 260-270bhp... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul@Plays-Kool Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juansolo Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 ooooh, I'll add that one to the list... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not bad for a genuine road going car, carpets & all. I'm impressed. All that money on a Millington Diamond block, and it still weighs over 600Kg's. Oh the irony....

juansolo Posted July 11, 2004 Share Posted July 11, 2004 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
