How much weight does that knock off?

There's no need. This car was designed for lipo, so moving the battery forward and back should be all you need.

I am on carpet and i have 1/2 oz on the side of my esc/rx. With the shorty one pad forward.

Some mod guys are adding weight.
Brass C & D blocks as well as the brass front bulkhead.

To each their own. Made more sense in the old cars designed around nimh. Nobody fast does it at our track.

Picking up a b5m tomorrow! Im going to try and get it ready for racing Friday on a small indoor carpet track. What are some gearing recommendations for 17.5 blinky d3.5 12.5 rotor maxzilla.

32/69 is a good starting point

Yeah I gotta say I run with some fast ae guys and none of them add weight. All they do is change the shorty position if they need it but we all normally run it all the way back or one thin pad behind battery.

I'm running that chassis and it's very nice. It takes off about 24 grams.

Do you run stock?

I run the SLRC chassis in stock and its awesome. It gives a little more flex and definitely lighter.

Is there any chance that lowering the roll center in the front would affect my rear grip?

I went from 2.5mm to 1.5mm

I was having to feather throttle to keep it from coming around on a long sweeper

I have a bearing company called motion industries that is in my town that sells the ones I use. They aren't as hard as the tungstens but at $6.00 for 150 balls I can deal with it.
