Steering has virtually no effect when accelerating hard so you need to be prepared to go in a straight line when doing so, but I think this is pretty much what it's like running a 2wd with a brushless motor... Turns in fine once the speed has dropped enough...

The weight distribution is pretty much as I said, give or take a percentage or two. The lipo cells I've got however are smaller (and the lighter) than than the usual packs I've seen which means I can slide them further forward to help the weight distribution.

Whats the feeling on front wings? I saw quite a number of cars using them on Sunday at Bury (and it's along the theme of Sparrow.2's formula 1 anvil alternative too...)
i have seen allot of people using the front wings on the CR2 and a few on B4's i have been told they make no difference at all enless you are on a very fast track with sweeping corners but in a straight line they will keep the front end planted
