I saw a car for sale that stated that it had been corner weighted. My understanding of the rules was that all weight had to be located in the passenger area of the car.

Is this correct or are we allowed to corner weight the car? I am not talking about doing this via scales and suspension adjustments.

Thanks,

J

The term in generally thrown around to mean it was adjusted on scales to get the cross at whatever the owner wanted. You are correct, it is not permitted to ballast corners. However, you can place equipment in "better" locations to assist in the goal.
