Default Weight distribution front to rear

Have anyone put their B4 on 4 post scales and could inform me the front / rear weight %. It would also be interesting to get the weight distribution on a Losi.

Wow, thats a really good idea, hopefully someone has so I can see the results. Talk about an overlooked setup area of the car.

If noone have scales (it would also be possible to do with just two scales)

Could someone of you 2WD buggy owners instead check manually where the CG of the chassis is, then mark that point and measure the distance from the CG point to the rear wheels, fully race ready ofcourse.
