Default Lead Weight

I'm always thinking all that brass for the added weight is too expensive for my taste. I just wanted to share what I did. It's situated a little high, but at least it keeps the forward bias weight. I got a divers weight. The kind that has the little BB's and opened it...took a bunch of the lead BB's and epoxied them into the back of the bumper.

You have an idea similar to what I did with the original honcho bumper. But I used 1/4x1/4 tungsten cubes. Go to a site called derby dad for hire. It's a pinewood derby site but they have different shapes and sizes of tungsten weights.
