Rear Shocks

I bought this 210 as a first car to get back into the sport and noticed the rear shocks are mounted behind the shock tower instead of the front like it says in the manual.

Why would the previous owner have done this?

I also want to know aswell? Also how do you do it ? Would this benefit in rear motor configuration.

Rear traction and the feeling that at least on astro and high grip you can get on throttle more out of the corner.
It works well on the +8 as well although its needed less when you go up to the +11 chassis

Would this help if your running rear motor? Or would that be putting too much weight on the rear? Also how do you do it?
