It may be interesting to find the front/rear weight distrib for the Ferrari Enzo
- the fastest cornering street legal car that money can buy at the moment.
I don't know it actually, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if it's just around 40/60, just like our humble Beetle.

I read somewhere it was 41/59...and it had me scratching my head cause of what was stated....as Miata's DOMINATE the AutoX events...until I read up about it and surprisingly 40/60 is ideal. Something about acceleration and the power planted on the ground vice steering ability as it's already lessened even with a FWD car as the weight shifts back....something like that....sounds kooky to me, but all the high end sports cars have 40/60 weight distro...so it can't be THAT wrong...
