Lance has 419 lbs of jam on his door, adding to the cars's weight.

 

This thread is not going in a good direction!

 

Heading for a traffic jam?

 

Vehicle weight and load on each wheel is information one cannot live WO in view of the efforts to shed weight (the car, not me), so I acquired a vehicle scale that shows cross weight, side/side weight, and front/rear weight

Placed my V6S vert RWD auto on it with a full tank. The result doesn't disappoint: 1615 kg matches my expectations after removing 85 kg from the fat lady (battery, wheels, rotors, and seats)

Weight in the correct & globally accepted unit: kg. Only Burma, Liberia, and one other obscure country use refuse to use this clever system....

Front- rear distribution is not 50-50 as promised by Jaguar. It's closer to 47.5 - 52.5. I would like to move it more towards 50-50. Any suggestions? (that do not involve placing weights in the rear of the vehicle).

 

Bekins Moving Yard in Santa Ana just off the 55 Frwy has "for fee" scale. I have weighed a few of my Nitro Fuel Altered drag machines there and Nitro Harley.
About $15 a pop.

 

.Good tip, but kind of long drive for me...

 

Took mine to the scales recently out of curiosity. This is a 2020 SVR convertible with CCBs, carbon package (though i really doubt this saves much, if anything, the wing adds weight), and Maelstrom wheels. Climate 2 pkg so the heated and cooled seats and steering wheel likely add even more. The car came in at an even 4000lbs (+/- 10lbs I think is what they said) with a full tank, but otherwise completely empty, no driver.
