How fat is your car? Post your evo weights!

Thought i'd throw this up to get a good feeling for the car's weight.

I know i got a fat one, esp with the roll bar in the back.

Full race weight = me+48.5 per corner ra-1's on 5zigens, + full tank (can't fit any more, to the tippy top) minus rear seat back, + memory fab seats =

3536.

I never checked with me out, but i'm 215-220.

So i'm gonna say my empty full weight (haha, that makes since) is just over 3300 lbs at 3315.

Good lord, 2780!!!

Pepsi, with nothing extra in the car, but no actual removal of anything that's attached, no changes in seats, no safety equipment other than my helmet, no harness, and an 1/8th tank of gas, the scales at the drag strip said 3375-3380, and I also weigh 220-225. So, nearly empty on gas and all superfluous items removed, I guess my car weighs around 3150, which is pretty good.

Jeez, superscout, 148? No wonder - little scrawny Evo owners, haha.

2700 with all those things? What constituted the other 500-600lbs that was removed, and why would you remove that much weight but retain the spare?

Oh, helps to mention that at first, but I don't know exactly what a CE9A is - guessing it's an "early" model Evo, but not sure what year.

I did mention that it was an early Evo in my first post about it. The lightweighting programme will begin this winter. As of now the car weighs as much as a GSR integra.
