Here is the info about it: http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10857

Hey Brian, you need to pick up a pair of trakpower packs, you could lose some weight that way!

It seems to me that the model has a lot to do w/ weight..as well as components..I guess that if I am really concerned, it means that i will have to buy a FASTER motor:intello:

thanks for the info!
