I would suggest Front to Back weight placement. NEED two mini weight scales. AFTER wheels are set .. weigh complete car - note weight. Place front wheels on one scale ... back on the other. Note weights. Divide front weight by total weight. Same for back. This will give you, the front to back weight distribution. Should be from 45/55% to 35/65%. Too much back weight makes car " wobble " down track. — VoxxerRacing
Use tape to hold weights in place .. repeat weighing steps. Move weights to locations to achieve optimal placements... then glue. — VoxxerRacing

I use 100% white cotton, non washed, T-shirt for final polish on axles. I do not know shop towel materials, but, if made made from wood pulp... not a good idea — VoxxerRacing

I suggest using same " cardboard jig " that you used in Ep 6 to cover wheel hub. Cut " thin " v in cardboard and place between base and wheel. " V " will center over axle. Usually perfect width to set wheels from base and wheel. — VoxxerRacing
When base and wheels are in wheel jig ... get small picture levels and place on base to make sure base and axles are parallel from horizontal. — VoxxerRacing
VoxxerRacing - Thank you for your various inputs here, appreciated and food for thought. Cheers. — CutRock_R_Marc_D
