awesome. hows all the weight play out from the corner balancing? I've considered balancing the car, i have access to scales.
It is still weight biased to the front, but the diagonals are within +/-3% including driver and 1/2 tank fuel. Total vehicle weight netted out at 3126lbs

very cool.

For comparison, how was the weight before you balanced it?

If you are referring to the white car, that wasn't a Mustang.. it was one of the 20V Quattros that was set up as a track car. They had about 100 HP and 1000 lbs on me. I'm just a little better driver so I could keep up.

I don't know what it was. I had all the work done at one of the top independent shops in the area. I can guess that it was pretty well screwed up since I installed the coilovers myself and only had it aligned.

It took them about 4.5 hours to get the height set, corner balance and then set the alignment.

It's one of his three cars he brings to the track. The URQuattro, an RS4 and Champion Racings Speed Challenge S4 race car. He wasn't driving of course, his daughter was out there that time.
