Not, or do you have fact? There is car named Ferrari F40 and it have 50:50 weight distribution. But anyway only weight distribution not say anything, it depends so much were the weight is and are weight divided evenly on each corner/wheel.

And for V6 vs I6 talking, who cares is car 0.1s faster on track whit V6. I6 just sound so much better and this mean ten times more. If you want go 0.1s faster on track, rent a race car driver to drive. Before someone say there is no differend on sound, then you mean too that there is no differend on sound between Flat six. and V6 also.

E: Why Nissan GTr VR38DET is so heavy 275kg (~600lbs) vs 335i N55 190kg (400lbs)
