Exceeding Weight Limit?

m4a1mustang · 01-19-2012, 02:21 PM

At ZDayZ earlier this year there were some 370s with over 450lbs combined passenger/cargo weight blasting through the Dragon/Hellbender without issue. The car will do fine. Obviously it won't drive like it will with just a 145lb driver in the car, so take your time to feel it out with the added weight, but in general there won't be any trouble.

Hell, we took a 5,000 lb Maxima out on the Dragon for a spirited run and it did fine!

Dang, what you have four 350 pounders in that Max.....lol. GM_Traitor3.5VQ from VA on Maxima.org must be your boy.

Yep. Not quite 5,000 lbs. We figure 4,700 as a rough estimate. It was a fun run. Dynamic Distribution Control FTW!

If you want to feel what it's like to drive a rear engine car (Porsche), just drop me and/or Shado in your trunk, it'll make your 'stang handle like a 911.

Having driven a couple I know the big difference between the real 911 and the simulated 5.0 911 is that there is no inappropriate touching involved when driving a real one.

Gotta hand it to the Max... it's an impressive car. Solid chassis. I know Jay just picked up an SV Sport and has transferred some of his mods over. I'm interested to see how well it does on The Dragon with the better dampers and (hopefully) some summer rubber.

Yeah it really it is, I noticed that he traded the 10 in for an 11 SV sport in his signature.
