24hrs of lemons square body chevy?.... weight of a 1500 2wd short bed

if its lightly optioned, I would say yes.
 
If they get one at the new Miller Motorsports in 2011 I will let you know!!!

I would love to do this with a fullsize chevy
 
Is it under 4200 pounds in stock form with a V8?

I have a C1500 pick-up fully optioned, long bed, 6.2 diesel etc etc and it's 4800 lbs on an accurate scale with me in it and about 25 gallons of fuel.

6.2 is about 100 lbs more than a sbc
AC stuff has to be 50-75 lbs
PW and PDL is about 40 lbs
Carpet and other nonsense is about 50 lbs
Short bed is about 100 lbs lighter than a long bed

my truck has dual tanks too...gotta be about 75 lbs worth of crap even empty.

I'd say 4200 for a base short bed is about right with a small block.

Ha Ha, you could be paid $1500 in nickels if you win.


  • 1.5: Winners and Prizes: The car which that completes the most laps is the Winner on Distance. The Winner on Distance receives $1500--usually in nickels. Recipient of the highest score in the Index of Effluency--as determined by a super-secret equation including vehicle age, general hooptieness, reliability of country of origin, unlikelihood of success, and Organizers' whim--is the Winner on Index. The Winner on Index receives $1501. Recipient of the People's Choice Award, as determined by totally unscientific, and almost certainly totally unfair, pit-side opinion and chitchat, receives $500.
  • 1.6: Your Car May Be Destroyed at Any Time: In addition to accidents and other unfortunate boo-boos, one car may be selected by blind ballot of all teams for immediate removal and total destruction. It could be your car. It probably WILL BE your car. You'll have 30 minutes to yank out any safety items you want to rescue, and then it's toast. Them's the breaks. Don't bring it if you ain't OK with losing it.
 
Rule 1.6 is way more effective than a claimer engine rule. :D

More motorsports should be run that way. :deal: :D

If they do it at Miller, I will be running in it. This would be so much fun, just hope that they will allow it.
