I'm even 35 grams to heavy with my 12th scale car, but it still wins races!

Oh, I also use the IP LiFe receiver battery.

Short answer is...... it's just Brad being Brad.

No, sorry, I can't feel the difference...
2 tenth?, I wish, that's why normally I run the light weight, and not the Pro.

Hey Guys,

I'm looking to change the front body mount post part #903502 for something preferably 35mm or longer. Any suggestions?
