Default nominal weight for B44

just got my lipo batteries into the B44 but a bit behind everyone.

What is the kind of nominal weight that everyone has found to be the best for the B44.

and

Is there anywhere in particular that the weight is being added to achieve the correct ratio

Mike,

What set up changes have you made to compensate for the decrease in weight?

Is it the usual like softer rear shocks, more rear camber etc?

Thanks

30wt no.2 piston in the rear with silver spring or green spring depening on the track and 40wt no.2 piston in the front with silver spring, the cars weighs in at 1640g with minipins, with minispikes it will be a little less
