Default dilemma

been working on my latest mid 2wd buggy, an update of my previous homemade job. the old car weighed in at 1366g and needed weight at the back to bring the balance rearward, added 150g around rear gearbox to get close to 60/40. the new car, without body as i havent even thought about what the body will look like, gives 60.1/39.9 weight distribution, and balance side to side within 5 grams. all up weight is 1299 grams so i need to add 175g to just get up to the weight limit. big question is where do i put it!!! three options really, front and rear, front rear and centre, or as much central as possible. have to say though its going to be fun finding somewhere to put that much weight!
