What would you be willing to pay to have your car weighed?
I was thinking this:
* Set up at an event *
$50 for anyone 1st time.
$40 for forum members and repeat customers.
* $10 if you want to make adjustments and recheck (only the same day at same event)
* By appointment & I come to you *
$100 for anyone 1st time.
$75 for forum members and repeat customers.
(This would be for 30 min of time starting when you first pull onto the scales. Not including my setup or break down time!)
Obviously this would be around Las Vegas area. I would probably have my friend build some ramps and I would have to get a laser level.
I would print out some blank forms that would list all the data fields. Total weight. Each corner weight. Percentages. Etc. This way you have a clear record and you would get the discounted rate next time if you bring your sheet for comparison.

For what it's worth, with me being in Texas, I think it would be a great idea. So many times have I needed to know and have been asked during my build what is the weight of my car. In my opinion, I'm not remotely in no fashion interested in track days, etc and have needed to know the weight of my car so I know guys who frequent the track will need to know their weight. This would be a good service to provide. Best of luck!
