Weighed the Talon
I weighed my wife's 1G Talon late last night. Came out to 2920lbs without me in it, kind of dissappointing. I was hoping it was down close to 2800lbs with all the crap we have taken out of the last 5 years. I went with a guy with a 2002 Mustang GT with a (heavier than the stock 4.6l) built 5.4l DOHC motor and a T76 turbo setup on the car. He was thinking his might be over 3400lbs, but it weighed in at only 3180lbs. If my 1G weighs that much, I can't imagine what my 2G weighs.

Re: Weighed the Talon
^ Just to think those mustang guys always complaining about weight when they lose. I don't think that guy has to worry too much though.
Mine weighs 3000 empty, now i weigh 195lbs, so i guess that means i am up to 3195lbs.
i need to lose some weight.

Re: Weighed the Talon
I'm scared to go weigh mine, but I think if I ever get up to LSE to corner-weight the K'sports, then I hope to get a good number. Was that a full tank of gas shane? What have you pulled from the car, since I've seen it last?

Re: Weighed the Talon
Swifty that one time I drove your car home I weighed it at the recycle center in ramsey and I weigh ~160lbs. My Galant weighs 2520 with out me in it right now, but shooting for a 2800lb race weight.

Re: Weighed the Talon
Wow, that seems heavier than I thought for a 1G with no cage. Looks like you need to get serious with that thing and ditch the factory seats, power steering, sunroof, blah, blah. I still haven't weighed mine yet, but I'm sure it's not good.

Re: Weighed the Talon
Ya, the TA by DB. Fast Mark weighed there after dynoing the night before me and Tyler did. Nate was gonna weigh, but he didn't want to pay. Even if the scale is off, I am coming up heavier than I had hoped while the Mustangs are coming up way lighter than we thought.

Re: Weighed the Talon
Shane, how does that work, drive up, drive off, and head inside for the weight? Is it just inside the regular travle area in there?

I think normally you drive up with a semi, hit the call button, then drive off and go inside and pay and get the printout. But the call button is about 9 feet in the air at semi window height and we didn't see it in the dark. We drove on, went inside told them to weigh it while we weren't in the car, then drove the car off and went inside to pay. |
