What is the full weight of your Cobra?

[Cobra289]

I think that my old DAX cobra should go in to diet.

I am forced to have an LPG tank but a normal fuel tank is also installed.
That all includes all the fluids an my self make a total of 1260 Kg.

Can you put here how much weight has your Cobra including all the fluids?

e.g.

DAX- LPG + Fuel Tank and driver 1260 Kg.


Best regards,

Hi 289
Sadly I don't know the weight of my car nut I am sure it is pretty heavy - it is an old design and has a hefty ladder frame chassis, Jag axles and a SBC. I suspect many of our cars are heavy that we probably think.

I am going to get it weighed though becasue next week I'll be in the USA and I am going to buy G Tch Pro RR and for it to be any use I need to know the weight of my car.

Say hello to any of the Dutch CRC guys that remember me when you see them around. The weekends I shared with them, especially in the Castle are some of my favourite memories. Great bunch of guys and gals.

My car was weighed at SVA to be about 980kg with fuel, so with me in it, about 1075kg...

Nigel,

Just today we have had (Dutch Club) a wonderful meeting at The Big Daddy’s.
A nice spot with a large parking lot, and big restaurant.
See some pictures from today meeting.

I will be pass your greetings Nigel at the next meeting (next month)

When you have the weight measured please post it here.
I am very curios about it.
I have seen so many figures here in Holland that I want to make a collection of information.

Hi,

My 289 with rover / MGB running gear runs at about 1025kg inc me and not a lot else.
This figure is from a corner weighting system at a trackday. So not more than 25lit or so of fuel on board. No spare wheel or any other unecessary stuff.
Fully loaded with fuel and other stuff i suppose it would be nearer 1100kg.
Hope this helps your quest.

I seem to remeber my Dax with Rover / Jag weighed nearly 1100kg fully fueled but without driver.
