When it's time to weigh...
Oh, the nostalgia of looking at our cars. The designing of the tracks we missed or wished we could have built when younger. Opening your eyes to memories of days gone past. What was a child's toy you played with when you were young, to being an adult and reliving those play things that we call Hot Wheels.
Are you ready to enter your first tournamen? How are you going to weigh your car? Sure, you can try to weigh your car for that big tournament on the bathroom scale; but you will never get an accurate gram weight. You can even try that kitchen scale and it might even have a gram option instead of ounces, but it will it be bouncy at the minor levels we need? What are we going to use to get an accurate weight of our new modified car?
But one thing from nostalgia that came back that I did not expect, and that is a scale.
Ah, yes, there was a time ....... You look back to your early teenage years, remembering how you use to weigh grams back then. :-)
Oh yeah, just need a little gram pocket scale. Ah, memories.
My scale from Amazon will be here today.

Digital kitchen scales are a go-to here.

- Unfortunately for me, my kitchen scale was bouncing all over the place. Probably best anyways to get one for me and my cars, and leave the one in the kitchen alone for MamaGnome. — RacerGnome
I also use a nice trim set. Sanity check for your scale
I bought 2 of these, and ran them thru the cal lab
accurate to ± 0.005 grams and only $11
