Not sure if this has been covered before is all.
How much you weigh could affect performance times obviously. I have edelbrock heads,mani,etc...which are way lighter but I weigh approx 115 kilos....Id say im weighing that baby DOWN!lol Anyone have similar issues?(and no i cant lose weight...im a bodybuilder...erm...with some fat in that!lol)

I'm thin as a rake....as if lol, i do think the weight of the driver dose make a deference but i don't know if it makes the car go very slow, it would if you have you know 10 amps and subs in the back and whether you have a GL/i or a Fairlane with all the electrics

most people use the rule of thumb that 50kg = .1 down the 1/4.
with the average male being 80kg +/- i'd imagine it wouldn't make minimal difference.

80kg for me i would be dead, a healthy weight for someone my height (6F 7I) is 100kg, that's why i know my car will never be "fast"

the only time i feel the difference is when you have a carr full of your mates add an extra 500kg then you feel the lag, but she will still spin the wheels (on the track of cource)

I have wieghed 80kg since I was 17yo. I then put on 2kg at 25yo after having a Tibia nail inserted into my right leg to hold it together (motoX accident). At 31yo I added another kilo to my wieght by adding more steel to my left leg.
So now I weigh 83kg and stand 6ft 1 |

Me, I eat takeaway too much (I ate maccas twice a day for nearly 2 months not long ago), so i'm a skinny little boy :P
My weight is around 75kg (I'm roughly 6' tall when i'm not slouching LOL), but it can drop to 72kg or less in a single day if i dont eat quite enough the day before... BUT, i eat more than anyone i know, except my dad (he's 6'6", 115kg), for example 2 ft of subway chicken teriaki doesnt fill me up, I just can't gain weight :(
