Hey,
So we can see on the pics that Lee Martin 's B44 at Oswestry has those Rudebits piece, the battery straps that are 50gr and the battery tray that are 70 gr ad the reedy lipos that are 285 gr that bring us to a total of 404 gr.
Pretty close to nimh isn't it ?

On the B4 the battery brace is 60 gr, which is what most people ad.
Should bring the car around 1520 gr, not sure .
Well that is still pretty light isn't it ?

Except if the guys also use some heavy front bulkhead and those rear brass toe in piece .

I would still be pretty curious to see some setups with details on what they use to ad weight .

I noticed the Americans try to use the cars as light as possible with mods like drilling a 4th hole on the rear shock tower, 20 or 25 oil and very soft springs .0,5 degrees rear hubs.
But their tracks are much different from what we have in europe.
