| + | For a drag car nose weight is a major no-no. You want as much tail weight as possable. Nose weight is the amount of weight located over the front tires. Tail weight is the amount of weight located over the rear tires. Most cars have a balance of 47% to 53% ratio with the front being heavier. Alot of cars have the battery, raditator over flow and some other essential items located under the hood. Moving the battery back to the truck area can help the weight precentages favor the rear. Your typical drag car would want 53% rear weight with a 50/50 split on the left and right weights.
