Im probably going to swap back to the stock threaded balls cause the ones I have dont have the 3.0mm hex on the other side to aid in tightening them up.
The rest im kinda stumped on what to remove. I really dont want to remove anything. But im looking into heavy weights that I can stick in a few places hopefully.

You want to get it the lightest you can. But 1725 is also the weight limit for ROAR Events. Im sure the same elsewhere.
I will try to get my car exactly to that weight. Also I think I found the solution. Tungsten weights. There small and should fit in perfectly.
I would go to the 2/3A flat pack , but thats only 30g and that removes all my space. With the hump pack I can squeeze in possibly another 90grams on top of the 70 , making for 160G of weight at the bottom and middle of the chassis. This should work out well overall and make the car pretty well tuned. I also saw a spot on the car that might be able to use some weight. Im going to see what goes on with some weight checks on a few items. Try to get the balance of weight on the chassis right and then go from there.

And is still straight as the day I first installed it.

If it cheaper i'm going to buy that.
CB : I'm using 3racing 4mm chassis in my MTX3. ....... so far so good ( going 3 years now ). It has less metal cutting ( light weight opening )...... easier to clean.
