In my last thread regarding corner weights there was some discussion regarding the differences between set up weights and the actual driver in the car. That got me curious, so I did some googling and found these figures:
Trunk 55.3%
Total arms 11.4%
Thigh 21%
Leg and foot 12.4%
It's probably a bit nit-picky, but once calculated if you have the modularity in weights (mine are 10" pieces of Al/Pb/Zn anodes from a gold mine plating operation, 9 lb each) it doesn't take any longer to put some realism in the distribution.
So me in the driver’s suit and helmet come in at about 245. so that means I need 165 lbs from the pan up the seat back
30 lbs from the footbox over the battery cover
50 lbs over the extinguisher cover to the front of the seat area.
I only have about 225 lbs of weight, so I’ll takeout out of the trunk/head area.
I’m going to re-distribute what I have and then after taking weights, do one with me in the car and see how close it gets.
