Should it be front heavy? Back heavy? Neutral?

What tools do you use to start shaping it?

Uh, I was a cub scout once...the idea then was that the scout did the car? Well, maybe a bit of help from dad...but it wasn't (then) designed to be a project for dad. Perhaps that's why my car didn't do well, but it was my car...
