As long as the weight rules stay in place there is no need for purpose built lipo car. I think its a cop out to be honest.

Nicads and then nihms just got heavier and heavier and we never seen chassis built to suit the newest heavy cells. I dont see why we need a "LIPO CHASSIS" other then get rid of cell slots and have nice box retainers to hold the square packs im not sure why people think there needs to be a special chassis. With wiegh rules as they are you have to add lead to make weight so you slap the stuff ontop of the lipo pack or the battery side of your chassis till your car is balanced and you go racing.

If someone is really horny for a lipo built car, grab a Losi or a HPI PRO3
