Because of where the belt travels, it wouldn't work to have a solid shim underneath the black mounts anyhow.... they have to remain open on the bottom side for belt clearance.

I replaced the aluminum covers of the derlin outdrives with the HPI/HB rings. They stay in place as I have carved a small groove on the derlin outdrives.

I ran my cyclone on the weekend, the Pro4 diff seemed to help on the corner exiting, I could accelerate alot faster out of corners without the rear end stepping out. I think there was something wrong with my cyclone diff.
As far as setup goes, I didn't change anything from my posted setup plus the silver front springs and the 2.5 degree toe block. My laptimes were withing 1/10th of the usual fast guys who were faster than me down the straight but the car still seems to have alot of understeer. But I have a feeling that is due to the lack of grip on the track surface.

Hey how heavy are you guys' chassis?
Right now I have GTB, PT, coolcan fan, and ib4200 batteries and the chassis comes to 1450g. With the body on it's around 1550g.
Is my car considered heavy?

Also, today I was using the Hudy balancing tool on the chassis. I found that in order for my chassis to be balanced, I need to add 35g of lead on the battery side. If i do not add the weight, would it affect the handling of the car?
