50/50 weight distribution
When they say we have 50/50 weight distrubition, is that with a full tank of gas?
When you people track your car, do you have a full tank to start and does the rear end get loose when the tank is low?
Just wondering how the gas in the tank effects the performance.

I believe so, they refer to the "wet weight" which means the car full of fluids, yet mileage tests are done with tank half fullIMZ4N wrote:When they say we have 50/50 weight distrubition, is that with a full tank of gas?

Don't you need a compressed bottle of helium to breathe to make sure your body weight doesn't factor into the equation too?20ducks wrote:I used nitrogen in my real tires, that and Firesign Theater on the stereo balances out all inconsistancies.
