My FP car was 2401 on the scales at Nationals last fall, with about 3/4ths of a tank of gas. Between filling it up and putting the rear swaybar back on, it went up to 2429 on day two. I should have it back together and right around 2300 in the next few weeks.

Corner Weights:
727# ----------------- 658#
696# ----------------- 628#
