Default Guess your weight!

was driving past a salt truck statioin last night and rolled up onto the giant scale.
i weighed in at:

2642lbs.
half tank of gas/driver(197lbs.)/dx exhaust mani with cat(20lbs.) sitting in the trunk.

its a 98' with no ac/ rear gutted (still have plastics/speakers)

I'm just curious what other peoples weights are. I plan on gutting it some more, but for the most part i was pleasently suprised.

If I had a guess... low fuel and without me in the car... I'd say close to 2400ish

is that the weight of a civic?

But more on topic, have you guys ever tried to corner weigh the car on the big scales? I know that it is not the most exact method as the other tires are still on the ground, but do you guys think it can eve give a rought estimate?

We have some scales out here that nobody ever works at...
