so a strange question.. i wanna put together a car to run GT at our upcoming speedweekend. apparently no weight limit but i have to run a crappy tamiya silver can motor. competing with VTA cars running brushless ha.
what would be the LIGHTEST e4 to grab, or would i have to mishmash one together using parts from all the different models? im thinking the JS with the nylon parts would be better as nylon is much lighter than aluminum, poly shocks are lighter, aluminum drive shafts all around and all the cf bits? or maybe your conversion yodog if you could machine the bulkheads out of nylon or acetel to reduce their weight?
im not sure if its possible but i want to try to build a car with 1000gram rtr weight.
or if possible, WGT min weight.
shorty pack, 12th scale servo, lightweight spoked wheels lol. pointless project but should be fun.
