This is with a 200g shorty, not a LCG. And a heavy spec motor. And my body weight is at 85g per the rules.
With this TSR 25.5 I have, I’ll have to add another 30g.
I’ll do what is required, but no, I don’t want to add 100-130g to my car...
I gathered some RTR weights for popular/available cars and provided that information to people that could use that information. Aside from that, I’ll be happy to help promote this class in any way I can. I’ve been on a rules committee for a RC related group before. Frankly it isn’t fun, so I tend to try and take a helpful approach.

Also, anyone wanting a quick and easy way to mount a fan with parts you may already have.
•Graphite steering plate 302570 (or you could use a chassis stiffener 306530)
•fan mount 306410-O (or a servo post)
Mount it to a free motor hole and bam! I’m still going to trim it, or maybe use the other hole. But I think this should work
The center brace let’s you use two mounting holes in the motor, but you loose a little adjustment.

Making more and more progress each time I take this thing out. Changed up a couple things and got the car even faster and more consistent.
•battery plate under the electronics (instead of the 60g stack I was running before)
•changed the way I glued the front tires. Previously I had a 1/8th inch bead just above the letters on the sidewall. This made it super easy to drive, but I was consistently searching for initial turn in. So today I glued them to 59.5 like I do my TC tires. And it came alive, I wish I had more time today, there’s a couple small changes I’d like to try.
