Looks very nice, the brass rear brace as well, what does it weigh extra compared to the standard carbon fibre pieces?

Looks very nice, but how will you prevent the battery packs from sliding to the back of the car? I know you have a Li-Po tray, but normally lead is used which will raise your battery pack over the tray height.

I wont run my S2 with any Led. the only Extra i use is the brass reartoe block. Im no fan of extra weight, and i think with some laboration with the setup i will find a descent one for my car. I am against Led cant stand the thought of it ... (i have been running my erlier S2 with only 5 cells) and that aint such a big diffrence between 5 cells and the Lipo packs im using)

Thanks ROssi for the comments, a ic when the ESC and motor is installed will be up asap the arrives to me..

I like to run it with some extra weight, depending on the track. I always use at least 100gr of lead under the Trakpower packs, but on some tracks 200gr is just awesome.
