I agree. in my mind the standard " heavy" car is great anyway on low traction tracks. mine runs at 1919 grams (saddles) so i can see that if running a stock class or super high grip you would want a lighter car. In a high grip situation you'll want the chassis to be stiff, not super flexible (generating more grip). so in that respect if running blinky stock 4wd on low traction track, this carbon chassis may help, otherwise i think the alloy Yokomo one will offer the desired performance. I guess they missed a trick... offering the shorty centre mount as an addon for the alloy chassis as well.
