There's not a lot that can go on inside there that would just come under tuning and shimming anyway.
Andy, I personally wouldnt bother with a weight limit to be honest mate as the weights of the Rx, servo and battery can vary so much. If someone wants to run a light battery with low capacity vs high capacity heavier battery then that just seems like race tactics to me and fair game either way.

All sound like common sense, not sure how you'd police bearings any team running last years car is going to replace them and now way of telling whats inside. Thinking about buying a complete car set from RCBearings as its cheaper than buying a load of pairs of HPI ones unless they come as part of the refresh kit
