can't run lipos and aftermarket parts from other manufacturers since we're running the local qualifiers for the Tamiya Asia Cup... we're also stuck with using the TEU101BK, 1600NiCd stick packs and handout GT Tuned motor for the races.

I've gone as far as using a lowprofile servo and a spektrum micro rx, though. other than the lightweight bodies available from tamiya and the ti screws, was hoping there were other places i could still shave some weight off.
