Well, I brought out the FF03 today. I haven't installed all the lightweight parts yet. But... in comparison to my TA07, and Sakura XI... Well I was within "I'm a terrible driver" distance of both (around .3 second). Moving the battery to the front of the battery tray did the trick. As well as putting the bumper on the car. Between the two, there's a whole lot more weight on the front end. The motor doesn't get hot yet.. so between a fan and a taller pinion I could eek some more speed out of it too.
