i took advantage of the scales at the track today inbetween runs and corner balanced my car ...

i got it within 2lbs (!) in the front and in the rear.
cross weight is 50.1%

all that with me in the drivers seat and 1/2 a tank of gas ...

Wow! That is as close as I have heard for a 914. It really makes a world of difference too.

Andy,

PM me your address
I'll send you a corner balance worksheet that has useful formulas for calculating the ideal weights for any given car.

sorry I don't have the sheet in an electronic format
that is awesome though
good job

p.s. what was the total weight?

total weight is 2173 lbs, that is with my big butt in there ... biggrin.gif

yes, the car certainly feels more balanced now.
