mcrisp, thanks for the reply on the hinge pin toe-in/out angles- I can live with that answer
. Now what's the benefit of a car with most of it's weight located down the middle of it's chassis(Kyosho KX1, HPI Pro3) gonna do for handling vs. a car where most of it's weight is on the sides(Yokomo MR4's, XXXS's, TC3's)of its chassis? It seems like there won't be much to "balance" from side to side with the chassis configuration since all the weight is in the middle- is this an advantage when balancing side to side? The more I think about it the more I see these cars have trouble transfering weight from side to side in turns which inturn leads to less traction.
