you can lighten up a mugen pretty easy though and not effect durability and or wear as long as you know what you can switch. light weight pillow balls and light weight screws and hinge pins, lipo pacK and some gear machining can make it rival the other cars in weight. if you put lead weights in the 8ight like some do i would venture to say the cars would easily be within .25 of a lb of eachother.that is only if weight is a main concern. the 2 team drivers i know dont lighten their cars like i have and they still seem too woop up on me .
