But like everybody said its good to have weight distributed throughout the car evenly. But then again the engine is in the front. So removing a good amount from the rear is helpful.

Has anybody fancied the idea of polycarbonate rear windshield along with a rear carbon fiber hatch? I was calling companies to see if they could produce polycarbonate rear windshields but obviously cant start any looking into with out interest..

With the CF hatch we will soon release. If it has a polycarbonate rear window. That’s a whopper of savings right there. If anybody has ever lifted the rear hatch w/ window off the car then you will know exactly what I’m talking about.
can you expalin a little bit more about removing weight from the rear? because i was thinking if i remove weight from the rear of the car it wont slide out as much as it needs to hence causing the car to understeer. but if i add weight to the rear it might oversteer which is much better then understeer
