I believe it is 31g & 14g. I am running the 14 gram ghea front suspension mount in the front of my mm and 15 grams kyosho weight in rear on the bulkhead.
Running 17.5 with the light weight chassis.

what would be the best things to try to eliminate traction rolling on a high bite carpet track?
would weight placement in certain areas help?

I would love to have a brass suspension holder for the mm car in the rear. The one that is right by the motor. Having a little extra weight right by the motor would really help the handling one would think. I saw the TLR 22 has something like this and it makes total sense to me. I don't need weight out the back, I want it close to the motor.

Looks as though the B5's have that option as well. I can only guess that Kyosho will eventually follow suit at some point. I'd be betting on GHEA to have them first. LOL.
