The Ford GT has a 15.2 gallon fuel tank and from the "estimated" dry weight of 2,980 LBS, it somehow gains over 300LBS per your formula with a smaller tank compared to the Mclaren 675LT.

Curious.
DIN weight is basically US curb weight.. Road and Track tested the car as they stated "Ready to Drive" at 2,982 pounds.

No need to estimate Ford GT DRY weight.. The Ford GT per FORD weighs 3,054 DRY WEIGHT. It's 3,173 with fluids, but without fuel. GT weighs 3,267 with a full tank of gas.
