Kia Stinger GT2 Weight and 1/4mi Time at Altitude

[Brandon Best]

Hey, new here, but I have been all over looking for the weight of the GT2 model. I recently brought it to our local drag strip. This thing is HEAVY. She clocked in at a whopping 4100lbs. That was with no windshield washer fluid and just under a half tank of gas with completely bone stock configuration. I also had not seen a 1/4mi time at altitude. I'm in Colorado and got a 14.1. Hopefully, this helps others!

I honestly feel like the GT is way lighter when driving it than the GT2. You can definitely tell the difference.

Well gee wizz. I’m so sorry for asking. Because in the US... it’s on the right side. Thanks for pointing it out.

Welcome to the group and I race at Bandimere Speedway all time. Crazy what 5800 Ft of autildide does Typical in summer DA is over 9000 ! It will not dip into the 8000's until late at night/early morning. In the spring or fall with nice cool weather 7000- 6000 DA's make racing more favorable. Stock AWD I ran 13.8 / 13.9, 13.44 in the fall with 6000 DA stock. I Weighted at that same station too and it tipped the scale at 4,145 LBS ! lol Im not stock anymore with JB4 and the burger burnout switch. Hits 12.80's 12.9's now.
