If you need an instant fix that comes with a guarentee, find a good mechanic and pay him.

The s197s only weight 3700 give or take a little. My notch has full weight other than no spare. So were talking more like 500 pounds. Not to mention his car should be making 350 @ the crank...

They weight 3500 with an empty tank of fuel. add 2 passsengers, ~400 for two grown adults, and fuel... 4000 lbs.

~1k more than your car

Way off...

05-06 Coupes weigh in the 34-3500 lbs, minus driver.

I have weighed my share of previous models before that.

My LX weighed 3,160 lbs, minus driver.

That is perfectly normal race. What "bolt-ons" do you have in that NOTCH? Full exhaust obviously...

A bone stock 05+ GT has been known to trap 103-104 MPH.

Okay, so add 400 lbs and a tank of fuel, and what happens to the weight of the notch?
