I'd enjoy this as a learning exercise, rather than something that will meaningfully change the car's behavior.
As a side note, it would take a 91 kg weight shift (front-to-rear) to reach a 50/50 weight balance. Others can probably chime in about how much weight they can move using ride height and preload. Based on my calculations, that would require 17 degrees of rake (front-to-rear angle of tilt)... which is probably more than Ohlins designed for. |
Thanks for taking the time to reply. Im not trying to get 50:50 weight distribiton.
Also the corner weights I posted above were after I did the corner weight setup to balance cross corner weights BUT I used the shock length ride height adjustment and as a result I have differing bump travel on each corner. What im suggesting is using the preload adjustment (so adding preload and reducing shock length) to add more bump on the driver side which is the heavy side. The actual corner weight numbers should stay the same but bump and droop should be fairly evenly match on each corner.
