How heavy is an SR3?

[dsl2]

Anybody care to enlighten me ?

Take whatever Radical claim, then add 100Kg

[Count Johnny]

On the scales at Brands, last October, lightest 573kg, heaviest 603kg.

All wet, without driver.

Or if I'm sat in it.. take whatever Radical say - add 100kg then add another 110kg!



Crikey, I'm a fat bassa! Bread and water for me for the next few months!

Do you happen to have the weight range for SR4's too?

Johnny, would that of been wet as in all fluids but only a couple of ltrs of fuel or ready to race fuel?

If ready to race fuel, what was the race duration from memory?

IIRC, wet after race, fuel weighs just under a Kg per litre (unleaded is lighter obviously ) so guess it depends on how well each car's fuel consumption and fuel load was managed

Nick (& fellow SR4 Owners) had mine very accurately corner weighted not so very long ago: less driver, all fluids and as near as damn it a full tank, 462KG total weight ....... obviously, that's with the Hayabusa engine, but I'd be surprised if the Kwacker was that much different.

Im sure my car is lighter, SR3 high downforce, small amount of fuel, no driver was just under 500kg.

That was wet, post race.

Barry (1300 SR3)
Your car weighed in at 573 that day.

SR4 Weights
Kwacker 1200: 508-526kg
Busa 1300: 516kg

PR6 Weights
471-500kg

All on the scales, at Brands, in Parc Ferme.

PS
Unleaded fuel weighs 0.74kg per litre.

With all these hugely different weights one wonders how often all these scales are re-calibrated?

Thanks guys, interesting stuff....
