Edit BTW: I think the Exotech chassis is gorgeous and a great idea. If money wasn't an issue, i'd have MTK's basket and that Exotech. (contrary to my opinion of needing it, i'd do it anyway) but money 'is' a factor for me. So I bought 4.99 of Lead; With it slid in those convenient slots to attain 80%+ efficiency of what that Exotech is claiming. (chassis flex aside, I have a brace.
) I did this and am able to door bash with the losi's now. Yes they're still heavier but this made a significant improvement. They can't just run my ass over anymore.

Yes. I do. it's only 3 ounces total. (1.5 each side) That's how I normally Run. I could put more down around the servo but i'm lazy.

Got a nice SC10 4X4 for sell if anyone is looking for a truck that's ready to go with all the trimmings.

I ordered my exotech chassis a few day ago but I do not believe it will completely remove the drivetrain flex. I build a.modified version of your brace which completely eliminates the drive train flex. I am working on a cross brace to also help is torsional flexing . I just like taking chassis flex out of my suspension tuning equation.
