Scaled my Street Attack Z06 today. 2948lbs

All weights are with no fuel

HRE 597R 19/20 & Nitto Invo
Front wheel: 54lbs
Rear wheel: 65lbs
Total vehicle: 2992lbs

HRE C21 18/19 & Hoosier R6
Front wheel: 45lbs
Rear wheel: 52lbs
Total vehicle: 2948lbs

Power:weight ratio: 4.8lb/hp

Not bad for a street car (under 3000lbs) with full interior, AC, and stereo. I love my Z06!

Incredible! What are some of the best ways to trim easy weight besides the tire/wheels? I'd love to get sub-3k with mine. Any tips greatly appreciated.

WOW! No wonder you were going so fast. Mine weighs in at 3155 with about 1/2 tank if fuel.

Those were not the only things that save weight, just a few of the big ones.
