I know Lefty is thin, but 0 might be an exaggeration  Hopefully 113 isn't too offended that you said he weighs a quarter ton I think you're spot on the rest tough

| Correction: I had my 20 and 22 mixed up. Now it's corrected with the proper weight: 20 - 600 lbs, 22 - 90 lbs. |

Larry's kart (96 and 196) is like 240 pounds  . He is deceptivley skiny and I'm ~165. I was looking for rear grip so I left it as is the first day and took 10lbs for the last run on the second day. Must have helped since I went over a second faster
On the flip side I have been under weight before and it SUCKS! Plus it only happens when you have one of your best runs ever. With the scales and the wind, play it safe and shoot for 390. |

I need a sandwich.
Seriously, I was about 145 at Nats. I was almost 160 when I ran nats in 2006. But now I'm back to my High School weight.
If anyone wants to join my diet, I'll give out my secrets for free. Have a high stress job, 2 kids, owe $50K more on your house than its worth, then go get an MBA while still working (with another $80K in debt!)... Worked like a charm for me! It can work for you too!
Lefty
still needs that sandwich

Well.....last year I had the distinction of driving the loudest kart. This year, I had the most overweight ride. I was 51 lbs over my claim weight. Maybe I should find a new class to run in?

When Deech and I ran my kart @ the B-ville NT we found my kart was 276 all leaded up. No wonder I couldn't find anyone to help lift it to the stand more than once.
tipped the scale @ 160 even this morning. than add all karting gear.

I'm estimating that it's been 44 years since I weighed in at the weight you estimated for me (#127). Thanks for the laugh, and I didn't spit my drink at the screen when I read this, but only because I wasn't drinking... |

The list really gives me hope for me to race @290. Where do I get an xxxl or 4xl seat and extended front porch stock motor chassis?
