Does anyone see any potential problems by mounting a servo in front of the 5 cell pack like this?
And having only the motor receiver and speedie on the left hand side.
I am thinking there has to be a better way that to run the car 100 grams out of balance, and moving the receiver seems quite a pointless task considering how light they are.
your opinions will be apreciated.

Good news full steering throw, and L to R balance is out by a mere 15 grams. With a 9550 it will be perfect L to R.
I even think there will be enough room to keep the forward ear on the servo and use a servo mount for more solid servo mounting. The rear ears will still need to be chopped to clear the cells.
Bad news is that the car is still a good 1450 with rubbers. 100 grams over the EFRA weight. Apart from the 10 grams of the smaller servo, not sure where to shed weight. rid the swaybars but thats only another 10.
Some feedback from some 5 cell racers apreciated.

At the national a few weeks back at West London, i ran this setup from the BTCC but i used 40/45 oil, 8mm rebound and 1.5 front piviot block instead...
Thats where I'll be starting on the Vtec tyres this weekend too...
See ya at the weekend,

hara build guide
In the Hara build guide it looks like he puts spacers on the shock shaft to limit down travel.
Is this in the front or the rear?
Does anyone know where to get the clear washer that he install on the shock before the top cap?
Thanks
