    Default Rear wheelbase/Rear weight %

    Anyone ever experimented with changing rear wheelbase to effect rear%? If so, did it take significant change of 1/2 inch or more to make a difference?

    What is rear wheelbase? There's left side wheelbase, and right side, but rear? I've not heard of that.

    Pretty sure he means moving the rear to change wheelbase and rear percent. The effects show up much more in dynamic conditions than the scale numbers. The same is true for engine setback.

    yep.....I watched a video from a wind tunnel and they were experimenting with it. One participant said it was eye opening!
