We ran a test for my car at 3500lbs, which is the approximate weight of the vehicle with me in it + 1/2 a tank of petrol. Should we have used the curb weight instead?

Answer

The weight entered should equal the weight of the car as you wish it to be simulated, it's that simple. Kerb weight is used only when there is absolutely no info on the car. In some cases you may want to add a driver weight, fuel, etc. to the Kerb weight for better accuracy. Its up to you.
