Default Car Positioning in Trailer

Greetings Folks;

I'd like to take advantage of the vast body of experience here once again to help solve a current problem. I'm curious to see what everyone has to say about positioning a cobra in a trailer for optimum weight distribution.

Hard data already in hand:

-Trailer will have a 20-foot interior floor space
-Tandem axles (3500 lbs each)
-Car weight approximately 2550
-Wheelbase of the cobra is 90 inches.

I don't yet know the weight bias of the car actually is, but plan to run it across some scales very soon to find out where the mechanical center of the car is. On second thought, I'd bet some of you know -- the car is a Superformance, the engine is a Performance Engineering 514 with a TKO 600 transmission.

Ant suggestions or lucid comments would be appreciated!


Bryon
