a little extra weight for the 22
 
hey

with people looking to get some more weight over the back end of the 22 in mid-motor config... i had a thought, and made up a brass weight that screws in just behind the motor... weighing in at approx 22gram, it's not a lot but it looks pretty :p and is nice and low
if it's well liked, it could be worth producing a few,
but i don't know a machinist that could mass produce them

what you think?

I like it mate. I'd have one.

Nice!

fastinfastout 23-04-2011 01:38 AM

Yes I'd take one!

So do you need a machinist to mass produce them? Like how many of these do you think you would need made? Could you not do them yourself like the one you did above?

Count me in for 1 :thumbsup:

it is a possibility :)

that was just made out of a scrap piece of brass i had and there is probably only enough for 1 or 2 more... i'll look at getting some more, poss a bit thicker and see how long they take me

Chequered Flag Racing 08-05-2011 08:50 PM

any news on getting the weight made?

Slinga 12-05-2011 09:10 AM

hey

Right i've got hold of some more brass and made 10 more... slightly thicker, but for some strange reason they still weigh the same :eh?:
must be a different grade brass,
anyway

they'll be £12.50, posted (UK)

PM me if you're interested :)
