Last time I weighed it with me it was 3650, but I've lost a few and gained a few so it still should be around 3650..

1997 Z28 = 3315
Me = 175
Race Weight = 3490

However, I'm adding a Wolfe chromoly 6-point roll-bar (60 lbs) and Moser 12-bolt (30 lbs), so my car weight will be increasing. I guess I'll need to cut-back on the beer and Bar-B-Que to make-up the difference!

Mine has to be 3320 for C/PS. Believe it or not, when I bought my '94 Formula it weighed 3360 bone stock. I'm 230 so I had to get rid of 270 lbs. Between lighter wheels/tires, AC/PS/EGR/AIR deletes, sway bar removals, lighter carpet, OEM exhaust removal, etc. I hope to be there pretty easily.

Nice thing about Stock Eliminator is that although there's a minimum race weight, it doesn't specify where the weight has to be. You remove whatever you're allowed to remove then add weight back into the car where it will do the best to get back up to the minimum weight.

Since I just run brackets, I strip whatever I don't need out of the car.
