In lieu of charts & graphs.......
One can do without a location of the CG. The object is to keep weight as concentrated as low as possible and as near to half way between the front & rear axles. Knowing your CG is not as important as knowing you've done everything you can to reach the above description. Tall engines are out and the lighter the better....if it can make power. A flat 4, 6 or rotary would be good examples. Weight up high should be avoided...top, windshield, targa bar. |
