I have read that some people are adding weight to the motor side of their ZX-5s to equal out the distribution a little better. Personally I have never done this and have never felt the need. I was wondering what the difference in weight side to side would be when running Li-Po batteries. I know Li-Pos are supposed to be lighter and thought it might balance the car better. Anyone running Li-po in their ZX-5?
The reason I mention it is because the next evolution of the ZX-5 appears to be a saddle pack layout. However if the Li-Po batteries balance out the chassis in the current 'touring car' style arrangement, it would mean that the saddle pack arrangement is actually a step in the wrong direction, as the next advance in batteries is undoubtedly Li-Po power.
