I have not had a chance to run it on high grip astro but i expect it to be faster as it will keep the car incontact with the track more and make the suspension work a little harder

In a nut shell since running it i think i have got faster
Si's right i did make my own Alu chassis, i wanted to try out the idea after Mr atomic spoke to me about it. I would agree with Simon with the way that the car handles, mine weights in at 192g's from what i remember. The ones that i want to do next will be nearer to 350g's hopefully so i wont still have to stick extra weight in. Im be doing all of this with advice from JC as its his idea, im just doing it quicker (and cheaper).
