What you got there is basically what I got putting my lipo in the front... I'm running on carpet most of the time and the car has a lot of traction and enough steering...
I'm not sure of what you are trying to achieve? I mean what negative behaviour are you trying to fight with such disposition?
Mine:
Rear 930.3g (61.32%) Front 587g (38.68%)
I am racing on low traction dirt and I an trying to make my mid motor handle better than all of the rear motor cars at the track. I tried rear motor and hated the feel. I realized that the problem was the high moment of inertia, and started this project.
I have learned that in theory mid motor is superior to rear motor if weight is kept the same, because of moment of inertia and the rotation of the motor planting the rear tires.
My mods have worked and I love the feel. I am now just making minor changes and experimenting with things to see the effect.
