Talking That was me!

We did a weigh-in at our inaugural Ohio Cobra Club meeting back in September of 2001(see my photo gallery). Hard to forget, because of what was to follow 3 days later...9/11.

But, back to subject at hand. DV, these numbers should look familiar to you! This is your creation! I was amazed at the near perfect balance with the big block. Aumoore, your observation is very astute, as I weigh in at 170#'s. Without me in the car, it was right at 2700#'s. The balance was actually better with me in the car. If I recall, Les had the lightest car that day, his FFR weighed in around 2300# with a 5.0 engine.

Now for the good news! We are planning to have this very same scale set-up for DVSF3! We will weigh your Cobra at all 4 wheels with and without you in the car. Donations for this will go to Team Jenny. DV, I hope I'm not stealing your thunder here! Thought this would a good thread to start spreading the word.

Glad my info was useful to others!

Dave
