    Default corner balancing

    Last Sunday, SCCA Tech at the Club Trials was nice enough to weigh my car for me. With me in the car and about 1/3 tank of gasoline, the car weighs 2590 lbs. RF 690, LF 639, RR 651 and LR 609. F weight 51.2%, L weight 51.8% and cross weight 49.8%.

    Is this far enough out of whack that I should spend the time and/or money to get it set better?

    If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

    In my opinion you would not notice any gains from getting the car corner balanced from where it is now. However it might be worth it to make a small adjustment in your garage and then re check it at the college station national tour.

    If you've still got rubber bushings in the suspension, your corner weights are close enough.
