| Re: Weight of current 40\'s Karl Ludvigsens book gives the following weights:
1963 lola GT = 2120 lbs
1964 GT40 factory quoted curb weight = 1960lbs
(the 1964 weight limit for the GT class the 40s ran in was 1923lbs)
original 1964 team cars = 2308, 2310, & 2355 lbs (using colotti box)
1965 LeMans weights = 2350 to 2452lbs (ZF box & revised nose)
1966 LeMans weights = 2416 to 2465lbs (final mkI noseshape with NACA ducts)
Alan Mann cars 170lbs lighter
1966 mkII factory quoted LeMans weight = 2645lbs
1966 mkII Alan Mann LeMans weight = 2657 & 2676lbs
1966 mkII Shelby LeMans weight = 2670 to 2714lbs
1966 mkII Holman-Moody LeMans weight = 2734 to 2745lbs
1967 mkII LeMans weight = 2679, 2692 & 2701lbs
used iron heads (+50lbs) & roll cage (+200lbs), but new mkIIB bodywork saved weight
1967 Mirage LeMans weights = 2357 & 2218lbs (lightest recorded weight for any GT40 derivative)
1967 MkIV shelby LeMans weight = 2652lbs
1967 MkIV Holman-Moody LeMans weight = 2573 & 2586lbs
1968 - no figures
I assume the LeMans figures include the weight of the driver ?
