i think the 638 kgs are the really very early minis, and the later ones are the heavy ones :) Best 1/4 mile 13.2 seconds @116 mph

Yes nearly Paul on jims scales it was 757 kgs. for some reason it has even been weighed as much as 780 kgs on some lorry weigh bridge. And NO cage. Best 1/4 mile 13.2 seconds @116 mph

i was talking to a guy who races mini and he said that when he replaced the rear quarters of his mini, the two that came off felt twice as heavy as the new fresh panels probably down to filler etc. so if a car is old and has a few patches and fills i guess over the whole car that could equal a fair bit of weight.

Would be interesting to see, but I think the weight loss may hamper Matt's already restricted traction?
