Nice try but I'm not going to let you get away with changing the rules!
Your first statements -- "If anything these cars are so front heavy it would
really help to put the weight as far rearward as possible.  I don't buy the
lower center of gravity crap." -- were absolute and made no reference to how
the car was being used.  I'll grant you that the differences may be small
and irrelevant to many people but they're definitely real...

Why not do the homework yourself?  Like I said, I'll be happy to send you a
list of reference books to consult ... probably the best $2-300 you can
spend on your car if you're planning to tinker with it.
