2013 San Diego National Tour - Toyota Yaris Forums

So I had my car weighed at the tour and was having a hell of a time trying to figure out why it was 20 lbs overweight from the last time I weighed it.
Well dumb me forgot I weight it with my street tires on it and the heavier side exhaust, both of which add about 30lbs of weight to the car LOL

Nearly set for the Pro. Just picked up the car and tires... Now I just have to get a set of crash bolts and align it.

I don't see the Hertz logo on the plate?

what was that weight?

2180.

The Fit was 2430??
The Blue Mini was 2480??

Also I can't believe how much quicker you were in that first section on Sunday compared to the Fit. He was using launch control to knock out a pretty fast time, but you were still (swag method) something like .5-1 second faster than him.

My 3 was 2781! I tried to launch as aggressively as possible without wheel spin. The fit sure launched well didn't he?

No kidding, It'll be interesting to see how he does at the Pro this weekend. Finally got my Rivals in, so it'll be interesting to see how they stack up to the Dunlop and Toyos. At least I don't have to worry about overheating them after 1 or 2 back to back sessions like I did with the Toyos.
