Corner Balance & weight on 911
What are typical front/rear weight distributions on an ’86 911 (F class)?
Where are some easy spots to legally loose weight in the car, especially in the rear? I am right at or slightly above weight now with no ballast.
I have already done:
1. spare tire
2. heat exchangers
3. radio and speakers
4. race seats
5. added roll cage
6. front/rear fiberglass bumpers.
... and yes, I know a personal diet would help this year.

I am a little over 200, but tall so I don't need to lose any more than 10 lbs off of me.
Doug - thanks for the sites. Very helpful.
Still wondering about the front/rear weight percentages...
Is for 40/60 way off for a 911 race car?

The car is about 25 lbs over weight with me and 1/4 tank. That would put it pretty close if it were empty. So I can take out a few more pounds and and just not run it dry.
They do weigh the drivers with the car in PCA this year.
I am more concerned that the rear weighs more than I want it to.
