Since the rear pod runs on a solid axle and has no suspension.

One could say that:

A - The rear pod influences on the main chassis' handling is marginal? It only contributes to forward and aft weight transfer to the main chassis via the central damper?

B - The main chassis is the main component where the majority of the suspension is at work. Front springs, central damper, and side springs.

So really, when it comes to tuning a 1/12th, we are finding a balance between the front and rear end of the main chassis?

Sorry, it all sounds silly, but I'm just trying to express my ideas to further understand this class.
