i often go to 1:1 pulls and my dad knows a few guys that pull and the 4x4 pullers the weight is alwmost ALL in the front and when they some times stop when getting ready to back up to the sled the back tires will come off the ground a hair or almost. they verry light in the rear

the front tires are also wider than the back to be biting on fresh dirt

this is a good example of of the weight up front and narrow rear but they use diffrent tires

they use tires like this and i think rc4wd makes scale pulling tires

big big help thnx!!!
 
I remember the 1:1 pullers at the county fair where I grew up were so light in the rear that two guys could lift/slide the rear of the truck around to get the trucks through a gate to the infield. The front axle must have been carrying 90% or more of the trucks weight.

Youtube has tons of videos of truck pullers for an idea on stance and scale.


Looking forward to seeing what you build!8)
