I'm going a bit off topic, but I'm curious and confused. Correct me if I'm wrong anywhere. I'm just postulating here...

Technically aiming for 50/50 weight distribution (or any distribution at a standstill) doesn't matter, since a spoiler is going to add more weight via downforce to the rear on a track?

I was looking at the initial pictures showing 55/45 and was thinking "okay, so a carbon hood and fenders might correct that, and would make sense to keep the metal trunk."

So if you're aiming for a specific weight distribution (I don't know what distribution is best, but it doesn't matter for the sake of this topic), you would need to calculate that in a wind tunnel with wind speeds set at the average speeds of the tracks you would most likely be racing on?

What I'm getting at is... weight distribution doesn't matter as much as people say, is that correct?
