Generally speaking, when the center of thrust is forward of the center of mass, we have dynamic stability under forward acceleration. Under braking, the reverse is true. The former correlates more closely to a rear-heavy design, and the latter front-heavy. If accelerating while cornering, it does get more complex as you say.

Thx,

PS: I do hope we hear from Mark again soon. Please feel free to ignore all my posts about a rear-engine design if I crossed into a corporate no-talk zone.
