Finished my DC4 chassis, looks sweet and can't wait to run when the track re-opens after the holidays.
Bit of an eyeopener though in weighing things up.
My Tub setup track ready weighed 1316g with 4200 Shorty pack. With same pack and steel turnbuckles on the Diggity I am at 1288g, a drop of only 28g and the DC4 has alloy screw kit and FT light weight bumper on it the Tub did not. Both weighed with same Electronics/Body/Tires.
That said the DC4 is still 34g lighter than my Brothers TC6.2 with same electronics.
Both cars will get a little lighter and quicker today when our ORCA gear arrives, Tx17.5/VXX.
I realize weight isn't the be all end all but just goes to show all the light weight stuff isn't as light weight as you might expect, buyers be warned.
Will post pics when I get the new electronics in it today/tomorrow.
