I was at the same point as you, was around 130 grams under weight with the 150gram shorty heheh, so I used a full weight pack for stock for more consistency, theres a step up which I can only clear the first few laps on my big 1/8 sized track. Where did you get the copper sheet? Been looking for something like that.

A couple of us are doing this at my track. The difference is ridiculous way more stable exiting turns, the rear end doesn't want to step out on you. The car just simply drives better every where. We haven't gone quite that narrow yet but it was definitely in the works in the next couple of weeks. We also used a B5m as our base for measuring. We were trying to keep it on the DL but some guy from San Diego just put the idea on blast.

A bunch

and trinity and smc also have some. Weight is around 150 grams. But it looses punch mid way cos of the voltage drop (we got a big 1/8 track for 17.5 stock), I might put that in for the winter back in where the size is a bit less.

Zachy Poos :P
I'm going to test both holes tomorrow along with the most inner on the tower. Hoping for good results.
Did you have to change your dampening at all?

I'm running 1.4x3 tapered 30w white springs

Both seem to be working really good.

Not real sure if Zack kept the same set up when he switched from MM to RM on Saturday. You could always find some one with RM B5 and measure the width between the top shock mounts and the width between the bottom shock mounts and drill holes accordingly.
What type of track?
So far it's been used on a low/med bite track and at OCRC. Low/med bite track showed some good results, OCRC was ridiculous. My son went from fish tailing the straight to the rear end basically centering itself when he grabbed a handful of throttle. I drilled my sons holes kind of narrow, 17.5mm out from the sway bar mounting holes.

Have you tried the new hole plus inside on the tower?
I'm also D-in on both.

Yup. When I used the drill press on Saturday I noticed a nice difference. I was also on 1.6x2 and 30 with golds. My buddy also ran the arms in his main so we could get more feed back and really liked the new hole.

I'm working with Kevin on the narrower rear blocks. Should have designs done shortly. We'll do a small run initially to test then get into production depending on demand. To give you an idea, the blocks will be designed to use the existing RB6 rear pills and when using A/A with the new blocks it will be about 2mm narrower than Din/Din.
