The FT car would need to bring something more to the table other than parts swap. A full FT kit with RM conversion in it-build what you need, bigger harddrive, more ram.....something .
Even TLR is getting away from including the MM parts to get the kit costs down. Since not everyone runs mm. AE did it the right way with separate conversions. My MM car is 1560 with alum hexes, alum rack and alum camber block. But I did remove weight via the Ti scews, Ti turnbuckles, light tranny parts and battery strap removal. If I put pucks on, I would be close to the min. My car run fine. I dont really want to get to 1500. With the XF chassis, if you really wanted you could get to 1400. not like club racing checks weight.
