No weight is always with the driver. It is hard to compare times when 1 driver is 100 and another is 300. Its called race weight. Classes are weight with driver
That's about the only time when you weigh the car with yourself in it. I mean who asks how much your car weighs, with you included? How much does a Corvette weigh??? You want the weight of the car without people, right?

I dunno, I think a Hellcat’s ass next to Kim Kardashian’s ass would make her look like she had a pancake ass.
Me personally? Ill take the Hellcats ass over any Kardashian ass any day!! Skanks, one and all!

I want to know the weight as compared to what time the car ran. My car can't drive itself down the track so my weight has to be included. For that is the only way to compare. I have no idea what my car weighs with a full tank on my street wheels and a small tool box in my trunk being I dont race that way. I drive on the scale and get a weight I can log and compare to other times. It is the most accurate and best way to say i ran 9.1 at 4700 lbs.

I guess if some people never go to the track and just want to talk about car weight that is totally different

…from what I’ve seen, some of the folks that obsess the most over the weight of their car could save a lot of money over buying lightweight batteries, etc. and step away from the buffet and get in the fucking gym…just say’n!

I’m pretty sure I’ve seen some of y’all refer to it as “the driver mod”.

IMO driver mod means being better at driving/racing, not weighing less?

There's a huge list of driver mods.

I remember Pro Stock drivers getting Lasix to improve reaction time. Don't know if they still do that or not?

Driver mod to me is someone that can't drive a stick. I spent 25 years going to the gym, burned out on it

Wow, some of y'all...

...but if you're pushing tree-hundy and spending almost $2K for a lightweight battery, ripping out carpeting and speakers to save ounces on a 2-ton plus car to maybe get a tenth, that money might be better saved from stuffing the black hole that resides on your face coupled with actual fucking exercise.

That's just from my anecdotal observations; some jabrone on YT that needs a wheelbarrow for his beach ball sized gut completely gutting (see what I did there!) the interior of their family car (much to the wife's chagrin I'll add), ripping out dash, door panels, rear seats, carpet etc. for the big "weigh in" and saves 23 pounds...which is easily the weight of just one of his many chins..

I got what you said and if some of us weighed less that is free weight savings, sort of. I have 40 I could lose maybe work at it at some point :unsure:

I'm definitely not ripping my interior out if I haven't lost the weight first. That's not going to happen so I guess my interior is safe!

You're not alone.

Got insurance on the Durango today, and it was $74.01 per month. Not the $50 or so I had expected.

NH. No crime, very low miles/year, senior citizen, perfect record (last 30 years anyway!) no winter driving, I guess I'm just paying for those who can't.
