How much time increase from a fat Driver?
Im going to the track this friday and am going to run the camaro 1st time in 1 1/2 years"YEA ITS DONE" and im going to let my friend make a few passes. He is a little runt
weighs about 140 and I weigh 250 "not fat mind you"
I our skills are about equal what time difference is there from weight? I dont want him to think hes a better driver.
Thanks

popular myth claims that 100lbs is worth a tenth.

Thanks NJ, I wasent sure exactly what time difference to expect, I think I can make up the tenth. Im sure I am a little better than him. Kinda sad though the truck thats towing the car to the track can make faster runs than the camaro.

He should be able to go about a tenth faster.
Move the seat as far back as it will go, and rev it harder in first gear. Also you could always ballast the car to make up the weight difference and see who is the better driver. If he beats you just kick his a$$.
