Yikes. That's heavy. What does a stock TR3 weigh?

Subject: TR3/4 to FP
I have been considering petitioning the SCCA to move TR3s and 4s from EP to
FP, where it may be a little more competitive. A number of other EP cars
have moved to FP such as 914-4s, MGBs, VW Rabbits/Golfs. Any of you SCCA
TR3/4 racers have any opinions about this? Hardy, I recall that you
discussed this a while ago but they wanted 83mm pistons. What if we had
them add 100 pounds to the minimum weight and leave all else the same? I am
already 280# over the minimum, so that will have no impact on me. From all
the steel body work that I have seen on most racing TR3s lately I suspect
that they are well over the currently specified 1870 (with driver), so going
to 1970 would have little impact. (My car is 2150 now with me and 2 gallons
of fuel) Joe(B)
