I'm still racing mine but parts are so hard to find I'm wondering if the brand is no longer in business???
Thanks for the reply.

I've still got lots of parts to keep me going. I've already eliminated all connectors. Body will be next.

What is the weight of your car?

Mine is 1450 with battery and body. I'd like to get as close to 1350 as possible.
