How Does Wheel Base and Center of Gravity Affect a Car's Maximum Acceleration?

[iiiabhiiii]

A motor car with wheel base 275 cm with a centre of gravity 85 cm above the ground and
115 cm behind the front axle has a coefficient of adhesion 0.6 between the tyre and the
gound, Calculate the maximum possible acceleration when the vehicle, is
(a) driven on four wheels,
(b) driven on the front wheels only,
(c) driven on the rear wheels only.

Well the way we do homework here is that you attemt the problem and show your working and answer and then we help from there. don't worry if you can't do it all, just have a go.

So if you'd like to attempt the problem; what equations do you think you need? etc
