Default Borrow a set of scales?

Does anyone have a set of scales I could borrow for a while? Before I go too crazy with the new toy, I want to weigh it and see where it is now. Eventually, I'll probably buy my own, but for now I need to prioritize getting the car ready-to-go.

Although, if someone had a decent used set for sale at a reasonable price, I might be interested....

I have a set of racing scales you can borrow. They are in my hangar at Montgomery Airpark.

good to get a baseline, but if you are close to weight, always roll thru the scales early on race weekend. PCA scales can be +/- many pounds and the one there that weekend is the only scale that matters.
