Pretty cool but I think to earn that badge further reductions are needed, like a carbon roof, removal of the head unit and most of the audio, etc.

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? |

Quick note, weight has inertia while aero downforce is just a force with no inertia. For example take a front heavy FWD car that has approx 60/40 and and a rear wing. The down force doesn’t balance out the 60/40 weight distribution and will still understeer/understeer more. |

How is the brake balance on track with ME22 front and MX72 rear and why the different type of brake pads front and rear?
