Now I see why you said it cost a lot! There are a lot of hidden to the eye goodies you have. Your crazy bro! That thing belongs in a RC museum or on my desk at work.

no way this thing is going to get the crap raced out of it

no shelf queens for me, she has to earn her keep one 10min main at a time, it would be a shame not to see something like this race if you ask me

semi pro no i am not a hater just a realist. yes you have spent a lot of money buying various lightweight parts that the cars i have weighed didnt have but we are talking about almost a pound here not a few ounces.
you are claiming your car weighs about 680 gms less than the lightest losi 8b i have weighed. that car had a lighter motor and esc combo than yours by about 50 or so gms. but did have a 500gm 4s 5000 pack.
your car between the carbon parts and battery choice will adds up to a 267gms savings.
your motor and esc is heavier than the one i weighed. so you are saying that the various lightweight pins and bearings add up to about a 450 gms or 1lb weight savings?
i can see maybee 5-6 oz but not 16.
the only reason i get into these arguments about weight is i dont want guys putting together a car, throwing it on the scales and be dumbfounded as to why their car weighs a pound more than what some other guys have reported.
if your car race ready is truely anywhere near 6.5 lbs then you have done something special.
