Brake Balance: Refers to how the braking force is distributed between the front and rear wheels. Proper adjustment is crucial to prevent understeer or oversteer during braking. Weight Distribution: The spread of the car's mass between the front and rear. A 50/50 distribution is often considered ideal for balanced handling, though this can vary based on the vehicle's intended use and design philosophy. It significantly affects handling and stability, with each configuration offering different advantages and challenges.

Too Far Forward (-): Increases the risk of front wheel lock-up, leading to understeer, where the car becomes difficult to steer as the front tires lose grip while braking.

Too Far Rearward (+): Raises the chance of rear wheel lock-up, causing oversteer, where the rear of the car tries to overtake the front, potentially resulting in a spin

MR Cars

Balanced Weight Distribution: Moving the brake balance too rearward in MR cars can exaggerate oversteer, especially in high-speed cornering because the rear tires are more prone to losing grip.

Guidelines: BB mostly 0, or -2 to -3 tro stop excessive rotation. This will also stabilize the car.

FR Cars

Natural Weight Distribution: Shifting the brake balance too far rearward in FR cars can induce oversteer but might be more controllable due to more mass at the front. However, excessive forward bias can make understeer more pronounced, particularly in tight corners.

Guidelines: BB is usually around +2 or +3 to the back, making turning and rotation easier.

FF Cars

Front-Heavy Weight Distribution: FF cars are particularly prone to understeer if the brake balance is moved too far forward, presenting challenges in braking into corners as the front tires are overloaded. Conversely, too much rearward bias can lead to unusual handling dynamics, as the lighter rear end is more likely to lose traction.

Guidelines: Keep the Balance to the back (+), with most FF cars BB goes to +5
