In 2wd at least the cells are pretty much at the CG of most good cars, so reducing the weight won't change the balance.A lighter car will always be faster overall, you just need to change the setup accordingly

I had a go with a Lipo at Southport recently in the B4 with a 6.5 and no added weight, it was quite rapid but if you behaved yourself it was fine

I can't wait for Lipo to become legal, better performance, less cell voodoo, cheaper, last longer, less stress on everything, whats not to like
