DEX210 - Where do you put your weight?

[Danosborne6661]

Basically open for discussion, where do you put your weight in your DEX210 and why?

The DEX210 has a lot of its weight up front and not much on the rear. My car weighs in at 1700g with NO added weight, broken down thats 61% on the rear and a massive 39% on the front which is a lot more forward than other 2WD's! Don't get me wrong... the DEX210 drives incredibly well but after having a go on friends Yokomo BMAX2-MR I noticed the rear was that much more planted... it had grip where I didn't, it soaked up the bumps and it didn't push like my Durango can. Yes it could of been down to his set-up but the first thing I thought I would question would be the weight bias.

I got Andy who was running the BMAX2 to weigh his car, it has a 63% of its weight to the rear so I thought I would try to get my DEX210 to this as a starting point. What I had to do to increase the rears weight by 2% is remove my 300g stick pack from the centre of the car and put in a shorty pack RIGHT to the back with a piece of led sheet underneath the same size; this brought it up to 63%! Quite a drastic change just to bring it up 2% so you can tell what difference it really is, should be massively noticeable on track.

Made me question where do you put your weight and have you tried the above set-up? As strangely enough people seem to add more on the front of the DEX210
