Anyone besides me actually weigh their EVO on some truck scales or scales at the race track?
When I had my 03 EVO with sun roof I weighed it on some truck scales in my area. With me in the car (I run about 240 lbs), spare in the trunk, and a full tank of gas it weighed in at 3520 lbs with no extra items in the car. Race weight with 1/4 tank of gas apox 3436.
I just did the same thing with my 05 EVO RS and with me in the car, spare in the trunk and a full tank of gas it weighted in at 3420 lbs with my CD's in the car, stereo I added to the RS, and 15 lbs of stuff in the trunk. Take out the 15 lbs of junk and CD's and add 8 lbs for my laptop with 2 lbs for the helmet and my current race weight would be aprox 3330 lbs.
The RS is so loud now with the solid motor mounts and bullet style muffler that I will be pulling the stereo out. Anyone know exactly what a stock EVO stereo (non-SSL) weighs?
Later,
Keith

Last time at Bandimere on their scales, I was at 3375-3380 in the MR with me (225lbs) and less than an 1/8th tank. No tools, no floor mats, no spare, no jack, no carpet in trunk, no crap in the glove box, ash tray, or center console.
A great way to see what each model of Evo weighs (RS,GSR,MR) look at Road//Race Engineering they have each one on scale with different options such as sunroofs to see what each one weighs
