Looking good Manu. You are just ahead of me on the super builds. I am hoping not to use more than 4 to 5 ounces per knuckle weight with the lighter truck but time will tell.

Is all of that weight hanging off of a Tomy knuckle weight mount?

She is looking good. My super will be very simaler with the exception of the axle shafts. I like how you mounted the blast wheels, to narrow up the track width correct? How much castor are you running in the front?

Correct thit is for a narrower Track Wide, but notice my axles are a lot wider than a normal Berg. tubes are about 0.45" wider per side.

Here anoter Caster Pic will have some more infos when i get back home.

Thanks, the only issues i got, is the Upper links crash into my Chassie before the Shocks are compressed completely so i have to limit them alittel bit more in the front.

Will have some pics latter

Thanks Jeremy this was really fast .

Looks like i will hit 6.5 LB with 5oz Thungsten per Knuckle
With all the heavy stuff on the Axles and a lot of Alu parts , standard HHK motors and 2 BRXLs .

There is room for much more savings
