Equation of a circle:
R^2 = x^2 + y^2
Dia R_ y y2 x2_ x
32 16 5 25 231 15.199 Rear tire trip point
26 13 5 25 144 12.000 Front tire trip point
3.199 Trip point difference
So on my car the beam trip points are 3.199" different than the wheel base. ie 111-3.2=107.8

And for Cudabin, I think he has 31 and 26 tires:

Dia R__ y y2 _x2___ x
31 15.5 5 25 215.25 14.671
26 13.0 5 25 144.00 12.000
2.671
And with a 108" wheel base, that changes the trip points to 108-2.67=105.3" (pretty close to my original estimate in post above).


Well, thats gettin with it, math wise. pretty much spot on I bet. Arnies other 60 fts reflect what you stated hear.

"
Yes it is heavy on the front with about 57% of the wieght there. The 4 gallon fule cell is front mounted which does not help.."
And I thought I was heavy up front at 52.5 %,,,,,,,,,,,
