I was playing around with a design and it looks very low. What is the "normal" height from the ground? See my dimension on the picture.

Ball park 100mm
BTW I like the curvey graphic stripe, works well

[Edited on 26/11/09 by ReMan]

ground clearance 4.5" to 5.5"

Ditto. About 4inches.
- Total heigh of mine to the roll bar is 4ft dead. Top of the screen about 6inches lower.

He didn't ask for the ground clearance, he asked for the height of the car.

knee high to a grasshopper, ish?

my chin is levelish with the top of the wheelarch...maybe 20 odd inches?

The highest point on mine so far is the front of the scuttle and the deck behind the seats. Both of these are at 31.5 inches with 5.5 inches from the ground to the bottom of the chassis rail infront of the rear wheels. My chassis is +2 in height.

This thread is making me feel better about the height of mine

Due to how low my sump is, i need to raise the whole chassis more than normal.

I thought size didn't matter??

Mine is 32" at highest, with a six inch ground clearance. Cheers Ray

Height to the top of the Rear Shock mounts -the highest without Roll bar or Windshield is 760 mm on mine.

My chassis is a +442E built with 1.5" square tubes, so it is actually +553E

...my play with dimensions were on the skimpy side. I will adjust. What tipped me off was there is no real room for a tachometer above the steering wheel

Thanks for the answers / E
