Damn, you do have a light one. Mine weighed 4020 with me in it at the track ( Silver Dollar Raceway ) when I ran 11.0. But that was after we took the seats out and had Craig's front skinnies on there. It weighed 3830 on its own, that day. Plus I have an extra HE under my trunk with 3.5 trunk tank and 1.5 meth tank.

Rbj, you were at 3816lbs without you in it.

My street/track trim is 3860lbs when I have my track wheels on. It does not change besides wheels.

Im looking into some race seats to get mine to 3900 in daily trim. A 3500 lb E55 would be lethal.

That's actually not bad considering you weighed it with you in it.

They say every 100 lbs is a tenth so at 3500 e55amgrocket would be in the 9s

Mines about 4150 with me in it and 1/4 tank of gas. Im around 145-150lbs.

No pano, no dynamic seats, no spare, no keyless go, no navi. I guess i have a "base model"

I dont mind, in theory it should be quicker down the strip lol.

E55 w/ goods, Z32 Project underway
Think I'm going run up and weigh mine out. Wheels, exhaust, and battery have saved a bit of poundage though protein, creatine, etc have packed it on for me.

JESUS Why do these cars make so much torque (not a bad thing )? I mean the torque is so down low it's road shredding.
