I've read that this car is a "little heavy" which IMO is a bit of an understatement. Mine with Exotek steering rack and arms, Kyosho aluminum rear hubs, Kyosho aluminum rear suspension mounts, radiopost servo, Orion R10 Pro ESC, Airtronics RX-471, Fantom shorty pack, Fantom 17.5 motor, and barcodes front and rear comes it at 1585 grams. I have already cut my wires as short as possible, with the exception of the servo and transponder because I have not yet finalized the position of the receiver or transponder. I also weighed my current battery position/hold down setup versus the stock plastic stuff and I am a few grams lighter (didn't originally go with this battery setup for weight). For guys running mod it may not matter a whole lot, but for those of us running stock I think we would benefit greatly from shaving some weight.
Besides milling out the chassis and titanium bits, anyone have any thoughts or ideas?
EDIT: added photo of current setup....
