I am just over 6 foot tall and a slim 238 lb. The Womer EV-3 I run now is the best fit I ever had in a Vee.
At the Pocono regional two years ago I was 1029 Lb. after the race in impound. I build them light and no extra fuel.
I love these cars. Nice for us average guys.

so what you are saying Hughie, is we need to bring the scales to the hillclimbs to make sure you make weight, or feed you a few extrea gunniess to add weight, and slow the brain. Like I said the Womer is a car for bigger guys, and they do well when set up right. One won the big race at the BD party. J.G. is not a small person, I bet he is pushing 6'.
THOR, who does not fit in his one off car yet!

I'm 6'1" and 205 lbs. and have a tight fit in my 95' Citation. It's the lack of room around the front
roll hoop (knee's) than anywhere else. With an aluminum floor, I weigh in around 1037 (+12 lbs.)
over minimum weight and dropped 36 lbs. by removing the steel floor! Thanks!
