Ernest,
I weighted the RX8 rotor, 4222Gram or 149 oz or 9.3 lbs.
Is my conversion right?
That works according to onlineconversion.com
That's only .24 lb of a difference between the 89-95 rotors to the RX8.
Considering the accelerations involved in slinging that rotor back and forth at 2000RPM (speed of the rotor), 1/4lb is significant.
