Default just corner weighted my car - its fat

hi guys - my friend has scales so we did corner weighting.
with full tank, the car weighed 3112 lbs, with no passenger seat, no carpeting, and drivers seat is sparco evo 2+.
Is that heavier than normal?

still has AC and interior panels, stock rotors, radio with amp in trunk area, all speakers, BK harness bar, etc.

only thing i might do soon is get lightweight deka battery and I guess 20 lbs will change the results but might not bother with another corner weight session. thoughts?

thanks.

3250 WITH Cage, driver and 1/4 tank of fuel is a good goal

gas weighs about 6.25lbs/gallon.so with a full tank(18 gallons) you have 112lbs. just in gas.that would put it right at 3000lbs. dry.
