Weight Distribution of R56?

[e46jb]

Hello, I am looking for details on the weight distribution of the 2007 model Cooper S. As it is a FWD the ability to give the car a perfect 50/50 balance is really difficult. Most FWD cars sit at around 60/40, is that in line with what the new Mini Cooper S has?

Yes. The rear end is up high in the air. But, still the front wheels spin madly if you just mesh it.

Brochure says 2/3 front, 1/3 rear. Not sure what it is exactly, though
