Woodster,

I would think that Simon is probably looking for the max axle weights. I undersatnd that these are required for the SVA form.

I'm still building my GT1 and am trying to get it finished by the spring! (when the Gillingham SVA Centre re-opens)

Unfortunatly I don't know the weights but will also need this info.

Jon Ison might know, though I,m not sure his GT1 has been through SVA?

Regards

Mike

If its for the SVA form, then I'm sure its the design axle weights you are after. As MK Engineering designed the GT1, just give him a bell. I'm sure Martin will know.

If you go 450kgs front and 550kgs rear you will be well in, giving you a total of 1000kgs, Mr SVA will calculate the gross weight of car including passenger wich needs to be under your "design weight".

550 kg car (all fluids full) plus 2 persons maybe another 200kgs see's you well under 450 front and 550 rear.

I know of at least one person that filled this part of the form in under weight and Mr SVA allowed him to adjust/alter it there and then.
