I still think that running a long lexan sheet off the baseplate gives you lower CG. But I like the creativity. |

It's not just about the COG...it's about getting the weight out of the chassis...unsprung weight will always help more than sprung.

I'm with you on unsprung & rotating weight IttyBitty. Can hardly wait for Erics Knuckle Weights for example |

Yes, weight out of the chassis and out of the wheels. Put it all on the front axle. |
