The car is already pretty heavy. My car is 1003.6g with tires and all electronics installed w/o battery and body. The body's about 100g and battery about 270g. With VTD it will be 1400g. Can't go any lower for battery, can go lower on body by maybe 10g. What else? What do you guys do to keep it at minimum weight?
