I have a 2000 GRT has the floating x brace, Bert tranny, 383 all steel with eagle iron heads winters rearend 25 gal fuel cell weld wheels, it's a complete rtr car, I have no lead weight in it, everything on it is GRT it's a 4 bar car I need a close guess weight with the car full of fuel. I have no scales and I'm gettin ready to buy some lead and I'm gonna see about how much money I will have to spend, thanks

probably right around 2000-2100. some other things that would be nice to know is if you are a square or round tube car and the size of the tubing. but we weight 2450 with our car full with me in it. im about 285 and we have about 40lbs of lead on it. we have to weight 2400 at the end of the race tho so its ok that im such a fatass otherwise we would be putting lead all over the place!

It's a round tube, but I need to weigh the same and I weigh 175

you need to take the car to a local grain ellivater to get the wt. I'd say you around 2250 with an all steel motor. my brother had an 97 grt a few years ago and thats what it was with out driver with a steel motor.

I have had a couple older GRTs and still have one. 2170 to 2250 would be my guess.

We had a 1999 GRT with the floating X, 1 3/4" round tube car, with an all steel engine wet sump, we were 2080 with 1/2 tank of fuel and no driver. We had to carry 40 lbs of lead to make 2300 pounds, with a cushion, with our 200 lb driver...
