Your weight sounds about right if you are using a shorty or a low mah battery. my full size Reedy 5500's weigh 319g. Just by going to a shorty, my car will come in at 1559g, get the carbon chassis, it will be 1499g, through on some ti and carbon shock towers, should get the car down to 1450-60g. NOW I can put the weights where they will help, no need to push around anymore than necessary.
So it is fairly easy to get this buggy under weight, easy, but not cheap
fairly easy to get it under weight?
Not really. Don't forget a carbon chassis changes the handling characteristics of the car.. often not for the better.
