From my very limited experience as a fellow amatuer car tuner and track driver, there is no easy answer to your question. For road racing, it is generally recommended to balance the cross weights of the car (i.e., front right plus left rear equals front left plus right rear), but there is much more to it. I suggest you check out the transportation section in your favorite book store and look for a book on this subject. One of my favorites is "How to make your car handle" by Fred Puhn. Good luck.
