ouh like that eh, good effort anyway.  cool2.gif  you remembering me when i was 15, i used heated screw to make hole onto my chassis. ye lah at 15, where got money. ha ha...

Beside the "potong-potong" chassis there are others thing you should consider:
- type of roller
- roller position
- rim/tire
- bearing
- friction
- then the total weight of the car.

you might be surprised when see other sifus who not "potong-potong'" thier chassis can get better time than those did.  he he he  biggrin.gif  smile.gif
hehe. totally agreed with madeywa.
my car during race day was 96g without batteries (MS pro). i did some minor cutting + drilling whole nite just to save 5g..if not, surely 101g.. icon_rolleyes.gif

hakim31z,
u are damn right...hehe

lolhalol,
if u got plenty of time, maybe can review for tools that used to customize tamiya mini4wd..
i think we rarely discussed about our tools. so if got any blog on this, surely helps other newbies and ol timer oso.

like my rm5 hand drill which i bought at DAISO japan, the curve. really worth it. almost effortless to drill chassis..hehe brows.gif

hehe. never thought stock motor can perform for something..

QUOTE(szngszng @ May 19 2010, 06:24 PM)
lighter is better?? i don't think so, when car go light, unless you have tire that can provide high grip which need less weight to provide friction, otherwise, you will found that your wheel actually not doing it job.

meanwhile, tire is actually the only thing contact with track that made your car running on the track...hahaha...
*
hmm...too light also not good i think. need to consider power:weight ratio 1st..grip also needed, so might be need to use bodyshell (cover) that can generate downforce to the car.

Added on May 19, 2010, 7:25 pmwill painting the chassis effect the weight of the car?
*
r u talking about painting the whole chassis or cover only? if whole chassis, definitely will add 2-4g...but still ok la.no problem with dat.
