Weight balancing 4th gen
Hello everyone,
I was just wondering if there is anyway to make a 4th gen more balanced all way around. I know I can move the battery to the back but that hardly seems worth it.
Thanks
Joe

I don't think there is too much you can do without really tearing the car up. If I remember right someone in the road racing section did get near 50/50 weight balance though.
Regardless your problems could be fixed in a much much more simple way.
Sticky tires + the right suspension.
These cars can handle like you wouldn't believe with simple bolt ons.
Real street car with full interior (ac, radio everything etc.) and simple (yet proper and matching) suspension + sticky R compound tires.

Yes, that's a $100,000+ Porsche GT3 they pass...
