    Rear is better, that's why there's more of them

    Its all a matter of driver preference, Justin davis just won 2 of his 3 first races in an ES mid engine. Rear engines are easier to work on though.

    I personally love the rear engine set up. But then again...I've never driver a mid engine.

    I base my opinion on if its friendly to work on and I like the weight balance. Either way ES has it covered!

    Weight behind the axles makes it way more stable in the rough, mid engine corners better
