just wondering what kind of scales you will have? One that goes under each wheel?

Yes, We should have each wheel weight and % F-R. As some of the Pro Street racing requires that cars carry at least 50% on the front tires.

Only 8.5 racers allowed to weigh in or can anyone that's there to test-n-tune?

Can't answer that question yet Joe. As soon as we get the logistics lined out I'll let you know.

Okay. If not people can just go to local feed mills and weigh in or maybe waste management may let you weigh in, but I'm sure it comes at a price.

That truck stop gas station across from McDonalds in London has scales where you can weigh also.

The main issue is the fact that the scales are not going to be permanently installed. Only set up on the Small Tire/Outlaw wknds. I'm guessing the scale man will be a busy fella on those days. I would venture to bet that you could slide in at some point during the day, but I can't make any promises.
