Just weighed my CRX
 
Well, the other day at the track, i decided to roll up on the big scale, and weight my crx. Its an 89, si, stripped past the seats, front and rear sway bars, and i put the stock rims back on. I figure the wieght of the two bars make up for not having any rear interior. It came out to 2070 lbs. Lighter than i axpected, but thats without me in it. Add in another 150lbs for me, and that comes out to 2220lbs. Not bad for an 89 si.

My car isn't a CRX, and this has nothng to do with this topic at all, but I 'rhino-liner'd my whole car interior while I had it bare. It really works to stop the vibrations and ----. Ever since I replaced my carpet, the car doesn't smell like pot anymore!

I'm jealous of all of you. Almost all of your cars are so much lighter than my sunfire. Its probably around 2800 and 2950 with me in it...that can make a huge difference in my limitations compared to you guys. I can make the power... but i certainly cant utilize it as well as most of you because of the weight :(

I payed 90$ for a giant tub of it, and i put it on with a regular paint roller.

You gotta use it all once you open the can, because it starts to get hard right away.

lol crippled that is pretty funny. Really good idea actually. That rhino liner stuff is sweet. I used to take company trucks at my summer job to get them sprayed with the rhino stuff. It made a big difference.

Worked excellently. Considering no air can get to the metal, I don't have to worry about rust. (well, at least inside the car)

I should do my whole car in rhino liner. It would be very rugged, and wouldn't show dents and dings.
