8ight Weight/Balance? - 01.30.2008, 01:33 AM

Hey, guys. I'm working on a conversion and my last step is to place the battery box. What kind of weight ratio should I be going for for front/rear? I plan to use this for club racing mostly. Thanks!

I was wondering the same thing. I have an E-8ight and was wondering what the nitro 8ight front/rear weight bias was. I placed the battery tray forward in the chassis on the left side with the ESC directly behind it raised slightly off of the chassis next to the rear-center driveshaft.

I have not taken my E-8ight to a track yet, but I plan to. What is your local track?

I always go for 50/50 be it right/left or front/rear no matter what type of vehicle. I believe this is the best.
