I'm getting very close to aligning and corner weighting the car. What sort of percentages should i be looking for in cross and front to rear? I would guess 50% cross with me in it and closer to 45% front/55% rear.

it will tell you how far off you are... what each corner should ideally weigh given the weight distribution of the actual car. your pretty close woody... within 3 lbs on each corner good enough really I usually quit trying in the 1 to 1.5lb range. brant |
