I have not driven my mid car yet, however from owning an x6 in the past, 65% on the rear seems ideal. My Rear mount is currently at 65%, and my B4's have been on 67% which feel good.

As for weight at the back, too much weight at the back will only make the car understeer on power, less steering into corner. I'm taking it off mine, car has so much rear end grp you don't need it.

I still think 65% is a good number to aim for, you wont get that with a speedy up front, just my opinion, I don't know what team drivers are doing though.
