I use about 70 grams of weight total. ...i know its a lot, but has removed the bounce and helps w/ stability/handling.
Try using the weights in various places to suit your needs.
For me:
-about 30grams or so on the battery strap (middle of chassis) ..some put it under the chassis in that cut out area (...actually I have been meaning to move my center weight from the battery to under for even lower center of gravity).
-about 20 grams on rear (at the rear bumper area).
-about 20 grams up front
...but I have moved the weight around a lot ...this seems to be my ideal.

Haha... I like the two and four wheel off the ground action. Hope this becomes popular in central TEXAS!

So now that it looks like I'll be banging doors with Mr. Teamhotrods in this class I better stock up on some spares. Hehehe... I'm assuming A- and B-parts trees? Anything else?

I didn't think it would take long before someone from around these parts would bump this thread! Ha!

I raced this mine this summer and I didn't break anything. I did have the dog bone issue. I am sure it happened when someone hit me in a corner. I couldn't have possibly hit anyone else. Unfortunately, I probably hit someone. I found the dog bone on the track.

Bounce
We have run TT01's and TTo1E's in our junior school r/c club. The steering knuckles are the part's the students broke most often. It's a common problem with the TT01's, TT01E's and TT02's. Although the very large bumper helps. Knowing this past problem we are allowing aluminum steering knuckles. We are using the Yeah racing knuckles. Some others require cvd's. If your racing outside in a parking lot you may want have an extra dog bone. Sometimes, when you get hit and your taking a corner the dog bone will pop out.

Tcs your not allowedto add weight. I have found raise the front body clips up one hole that way the body can move alittle seems like the wrong thing to do but it took almost al bounce out of mine i also run 100k in my shocks. They are moveing parts and per the rules we can lubricate. Hopr that helps it did me and i run it in the tcs race that way.
