Weight distribution front to rear
Have anyone put their B4 on 4 post scales and could inform me the front / rear weight %. It would also be interesting to get the weight distribution on a Losi.

Wow, thats a really good idea, hopefully someone has so I can see the results. Talk about an overlooked setup area of the car.

If noone have scales (it would also be possible to do with just two scales)
Could someone of you 2WD buggy owners instead check manually where the CG of the chassis is, then mark that point and measure the distance from the CG point to the rear wheels, fully race ready ofcourse. |

the only reason you would want to measure the weight distribution of a B4 is if you didn't drive one
if you drive one it would really not bother you how much weight was over the front of the back, you would know 'it just works' |

It's 30/70.
You only need to know this if you're building your own car |

ad both rear weights
ad both front weights then work out the differance front to rear so IF both rears weigh 50 grams each you have 100 if both front were 50 each another 100 to th split would be 50/50 or add both sides (right front + rights rear)then the left) and work out if your car is balanced along its centre line god i sound like a tc geek!!
