Corner Weighting

Postby pdsman53 » Sun Oct 06, 2024 3:21 pm

Hi guys,
Does anyone around Sydney, know or have a Corner Weighting Kit that they may possibly Hire out for a couple of days.

It seems to me that as a group we should invest in stuff that is needed, but too expensive for the individual to justify the outlay.
Obviously one person, would need to store the gear, take a deposit and check the condition on return.
The renters would need to take responsibility for any damage.

If not, does anyone have details on building a reliable DYI option?
Thanks in advance,
Jim

Not enough people here/demand/trust for this concept to work. I don't think this concept would ever work.
I'd find a workshop to do it for you.

I think Bruce is right. I can think of a couple of instances of 'racing mates' who might share the expense between them, otherwise I doubt that I would be party to a co-op buy with 'randoms' with whom I have little contact.

maybe Mania or someone would have a set for hire, or someone who wants to corner-weight could buy a set and then rent them out, otherwise I think it is a good idea, but not good enough to work.
