Default Weighing the BA XR8........

Hi guys,

weighed the beast today on the Hume public weighbridge behind my factory,

BA XR8 ute
completely empty, fuel light on, no spare, no jack

OPTIONS
brembo's
sunroof
rear spoiler and decklid
auto
6 stack CD
pass airbag

Thats about all.........

it weighed in at 1820kg exactly, minus me.

The spare and towbar and jack would EASY go an extra 30kgs, but i race without them.

I also take the decklid off, which would make it 1780 odd. I weigh in at 90, making 1870.

with the fuel in, its an easy 1900 plus.

damn these things are heavy........................
