Post Left to Right Balance

This is my first attempt at "balancing" a car. I probably wouldn't have bothered, but my car is ~90g under weight and I just wanted to optimize the placement of that weight.

The attached images show how I have balanced the car. The scales show that the rear is ~10g unbalanced. To get it to balance out completely I had to add ~60g of weights next to the motor bell end. This also shows nicely perfect balance by suspending the car in air using two picks, one on the rear wing mount center screw (unique to the 3.0) and one on the center of the front bulk head, just above the bumper.

Not sure if anyone has been this particular about left to right balance, but I thought I would give it a try.
