Because I am running a 416 cubic inch motor and 18" x 12" wheels, the car must weigh 3100 lbs. I will be adding about 500 lbs of lead / steel to the floor and cage behind the rear seat. All very low and centered weight. And yes, this will be a tricked out CP Camaro with lights that I will occasionally drive on the street. People say I am crazy, but, I have a vision and I am seeing it thru. :D

Brian,
Have you thought about adding weight inside the rockers themselves? That's a pretty low CG, I would think.
Oh yeah, Awesome build!:thumbsup:
