Default Re: Weight Placement

The right rear corner is always the best place to start with permanent weight...... ..I always put the removable weight closest to the rear axle in the middle of the trunk, and use it only to correct for the scales . .....This way it does not significantly upset the corner weights or the chassis reaction ....Permantly mounted weight can have a significant effect on the chassis reaction and vehicle reaction times . .....Too far back and too high on an otherwise good hooking car ,can really pick up the reaction times and turn a good car into a pain in the butt to find a spot on the tree. ...[see my avatar!]
