put the weight ot the rear then. it will do 2 things for you. 1) it will make the back end heavy when you hit the gas and make it grip better. and 2) it will also make it so that when you make a tight turn that weight will whip the back end around. it makes for a nice drifting set up.

I read( somewhere around these forums) if i put the bats on da front it will give more traction to da front and everytime you turn da back would wip, like a drift. so wats da dif? if it was back or front?

basically, if you put them in front you will have oversteer, if you put them in back you will have understeer because of all of the grip in the rear which you can correct by using a higher # tie rods ie 4.5 and you can also give it more throttle around the turn
