I mean I drove to a scale for semi trucks. I measured the distance from the front tire to the rear tire. I split that distance in half, about where my torso sits in the drivers seat. I drove on and parked so the front half was on the scale. Then I drove the back half on with the front hanging off. That's how I got 57/43. I figure its as good as any to find the front to rear ratio. Till I get my cage and add 100lbs back to the back, no matter what I think I'll have over steer.

I need to go again if it truly works and also drive on with right side/left side/one tire at a time. Figure that way I'll know all 4 corner weights for free and give me an idea about ballast. I like math too and doing this stuff!
