Default RE: Is 4 lbs. to heavy for a 1/10th scale car???

WOW! I don't feel so bad then that a Mugen without an engine is almost the same weight as my TC3 with an engine. I guess I can shed some weight with some carbon fiber pieces then. I'd like to get it to 3 lbs. if possible.

BTW, looking at the pics of the NEW TC3 chassis, I've been running the car and man is it a beast. I bought a new Integy tire lathe and cut the tires WAAAAAAAY down and that helped it damn near 95% from the way it was acting with the tires new from Mugen. The plan is to run it hard this spring/summer and take some vids if I can get someone to video as I run it and radar it.

Where are you with yours nitrohead?

Thanks ferrarimk for your input and no pun was intended from me either.
