Here's a bit of gee-whiz info for you.
Wanted to know how heavy this beast is getting.
I set the car on 2x4 blocks under each tire. This being the same depth as our bathroom scale.
Then one by one and multiple tries of each corner I settled on the weights below.
It needs to go on a diet. I thought it would get up to about 500 lbs.
I'm glad I chose to use two motors.
In lbs.
The rear different weights are due to the steering and master cylinders are on that side.
The steering mainly is heavy.
LR = 211
RR = 186
Haven't figured out why the difference in the front.
LF = 72
RF = 89 ( don't know why)
Total 558 lbs. (253 kilos)
It zips right along despite the weight.
Which includes another 450 +/- for passengers.
450 + 558 = a heafty 1008 lbs.
