				How many of you racers have moved the battery to the trunk to help balance out the front/rear weight ratio?  Is it helpful?  What other options are there to assist in balancing the car?

				Why not run a 14 pound gell-cell battery in the stock location, skip on the 14 pounds of COPPER you need to relocate the battery into the back, then simply add some lead ballast to the places where you really need to add mass??
