If I had a uni-bit with me at the time I probably would have lightened the tray just enough to bring the car back down to weight. Here's a pic of my cars on RC50, you can see how I had the blocks glued in on this:

Hrm... So I know for sure I dont want to run a heavy car... that sorta goes against the whole LiPo thing... so no heavy tray for me although the blocks on the tray do make it look like it holds good without the need for tape.
But I Guess I'll need to use tape if I plan to run 1/10th... grr I was just so happy about getting away from tape in the 1/12th.
Would be nice if thr 10RR chassis could get the treatment that the 12RR did to make a pocket for the 1S packs and some retainment mech that would not require taking the time to tape in a pack everytime we need to swap one. The CRC XL's that were there didnt need the pack taped in did they? (Hunting for pics)
