The BRCA min weight for a 1/10th car is 1750grams or 3.86 lbs. Josh Cyrul won the winternats a few years ago with an FW05 that was 1850 grams or 4.08lbs so its normal. The min for 1/8th cars is 2500 grams or 5.5lbs
Cheers
Now that is very information to know. Maybe I will just add a few carbon fiber pieces anyways and do that hardcore racing lightened chassis to help for more speed.
Anyone got anything else to add for shaving weight on a TC3?
Nitrohead, let me know if you need some help making some big block mounts for a TC3. I made mine with aluminum stock, drilled and tapped it and installed. I also fabbed my pipe to work as well. I found out by cutting down the tires dramatically increased chassis clearance and I had to cut very, very minimal upper plastic off the upper chassis and none of the aluminum chassis.
