Default Cougar weight
As above...

What weight are people running them at?

And...

Where have people placed weights?

Cheers, Tom

I'm not running any weight in mine.

Springs - 4.5's are in stock according to the Schumacher website. 4.0's should be available shortly

i run a strip of lead under the battery which weighs in about 70 grams. for me personally it makes the car feel a tad more settled over the bumps and u can push the car harder in the turn. aswell i have been testing some trish bits brass weights which will be availible soon. a bit for the front a bit for the bk

It's been my experience that the fat/overweight "Cougars" don't run as well as the skinny ones.

I'm running weight in my cougar Just enough though to settle the car down.
I am currently in the middle of the First batch of Trishbits Cougar weights. The Prototypes have been produced and they will be on the website soon! I will put pictures up for you all to see soon!! Then you will be able to put some very shinny Brass Goodies on your cougars

I guess it depends on how heavy one's lipos are...

Mine are quite light (4200 saddles), so I'll be adding some weight.
