LMP weight distribution

[silente]

Hi all,

i was wondering about the mass distribution of a modern Lemans Protoype, like AUDI R18 or Toyota TS030.

SInce they are using very similiar tire size front to rear and i have read that they have also a a quite front biased aero balance, i guess they should also have quite a front biased weight distribution. But how much?

Do anybody have a more precise idea about that?

thanks

Dome S102 - total weight: 900 kg, 48% at front, 52% at the back. Data source: Racecar Engineering.

It was a free PDF issue distributed a while ago, it's called Le Mans Opti (or at least the file).
I sneaked around and found that someone has already uploaded it - http://www.scribd.com/doc/99268848/Le-Mans-Opti - it's a free special edition, awesome material, as always.

I have searched the document and talked to prof. journos about Le Mans, most of them have been there, the answer was: "typical Le Mans weight distribution", but no numbers. I'm not a big expert on this race series, but based on that I can assume it's something close to the figures provided earlier. I'd love to be proven wrong - every mistake is new lesson.
