Don't worry, I think the guys haven't cut the wing down - on the Mazda it is massive...well above the roof line!
I just found this out today from the Xray forum - but I'll wait and see. I didn't notice this with my EVO III during the winter.

Never thought of doing that

The weights won't un-tweak your car, but will improve the weight balance. Have a look in the FAQ, depending upon servos and radio gear, I think the weight varies from 60 to 100 grams to the left of the tank.
If you've got Ray Wood's Winternats DVD, check out Michael Salven's 710 - you can see an Xray weight bolted to the chassis by the tank.

To tweak your car, follow Julius' method in the FAQ in my signature - this is the best tweak method and the most accurate

I just had my first real race today w/ the 710, and all I can say is WOW!!!! What a great car. After having switching from a TC3, this car is great, and has already saved me money. I only broke a F bumper mount all weekend, and got 2nd in the A at our regional race.

GO SERPENT!!!!!!!

The funny thing is, NTC3 is the world champion car just like Evolva that breaks here and there

Default Alu anti-rollbar arms

Anyone using the orange anti rollbar arms? I put mine on and it makes the suspension arms bind Its ok with the normal plastic ones, but the alu ones seem to not be of the same size

If you like touring car bodies like the Alfa or the mazda 6 , Stratus etc.
Try the frewer racing Ford Falcon BA 200mm shell It handles great look at the picture probably the best touring car shell i have driven. ( I have tried the rest apart from the mazda 6 )
