Page 167. The minimum dry weight for Trans-Am was 2900 lbs until 1970, then it was raised to 3200 lbs. It also states starting in 1970-"The cars could weigh a maximum of 3400 lbs with fuel and driver".

In this article it said that the car somehow avoided the scale for most of '67 and when it was weighed turned out to be underweight by quite a margin... it was only 2700 lbs or so. In '68 they reused the same underweight car by tricking the tech inspectors. tiger Aug 22nd, 01, 10:14 AM i have just received the homolagation weights 67 is 2640 lbs dry,( no fuel ) 68 the same. 69 2682 lbs dry 70 3054 dry. did the scca run these rules. davidpozzi Aug 22nd, 01, 07:04 PM I didn't think of it before, but SCCA had the Trans-Am professional series, but also had the A sedan amature series. I don't know if the weights were the same. Here is a link that mentions a weight: http://www.amx-perience.com/transam_1970.htm Which series are you interested in?
