production before they considered its weight distribution? This is bit reminscent of the development of the original GT40. The car was a poor performer until Carrol Shelby was brought in to work out the bugs. But back then the GT40 was a prototype not something Ford has been tweaking for 40 years. Such an elemental design flaw (57/43 WD) doesn't inspire a lot of confidence. Guess they just wanted to get the thing out the door, WTF
