Going by you're track times you should smoke her. 80'* Vettes were SLOW.

I found this comparison that includes the 2000 SSEi, it'* got the curb weight at 3,810

That article is right on the money on all accounts for a stock SSEi.
I weighed mine with a full tank and all accessories, and spare tire.

Race prepped with a Rogue driving would put it at about 3880 lbs.

Why worry? Is she modded? You have a high 13 second car vs. her low 15 second car. Need I post pics of my stock LSS running with a 74 Vette again?

According to my last smog check report, my 94 SSE weighs in at about 3700.

Yeah, she may be somewhat modded, but i hope to have some Headers in real soon.

I really am curious as to why the 2000 and above Bonneville is so heavy. My Aurora which is on the same Platform is 3,600 pounds. the V8 version is 3,800 or so. Think the extra weight comes from the cast iron engine of the 3800?
