The extra weight can help you get a little better rear traction, but adding a lot of rear weight is just making the car heavier and that isn't worth it.
      I always wanted to get my cars closer to 52/48 with the fuel tank at 1/2 full (see I am an optimist). Of course I am lucky if I get 55/45 with a full tank.....now I am not feeling so optimistic.
