Corner weight gauge "Borrow"


Recommended Posts

Bit Cheeky I know, but does anyone have a Corner weight Gauge i can borrow, I am in the South yorkshire area, I just want to check my setup before doing a few track days that are booked, It just seems a bot pointless to buy one only to use the once, Beer tokens on offer.

If you don't have any luck borrowing a gauge you could always go the pikey bathroom scale route.

Argos sell them for £2.99 each.  You will need 8 scales to take the weight but with 2 under each wheel and a piece of wood between them to spread the load you can get yourself a setup that works for £23.99  :D

The scales wont take the weight of you driving the car onto them so you have to lower it off a jack but for checking corner weights they work very well.

My old car was within 8kgs of Playskools scales as a total weight, so it is hard to question the accuracy.

clicky

Cheers

Mark, thanks for that it seems a good idea as a last resort, I can just imagine what people would think when walking out of Argos with 8 scales, "blimmey he must be weighing some right fat b@gger"
