I own a set of scales, just let me know if you really want to corner balance your car.

I was able to get my R/L and cross weights to 50/50% which is great, it makes a big improvement in the handling and predictability of the car and is much more important than F/R balance on a car like this.

THIS is exactly what i need them for as i was going to do a battery relocation into the spare wheel well. most people think i'm asking about just front-rear distribution when i really was interested in corner balancing. i just wanted to know how far to mount the battery to the right to offset the fuel tank.

i'd love to put my car up on the scales... but i have nothing to offer you in return other than maybe a case of beer and a bucket of chicken. what's your price?

or, if you need tires (and i'm assuming you do since you track your car), i can give you my cost on tires. paint too. let me know
