Stock D8 is very heavy.
I have all the lightened parts available including custom lightened chassis on it and i shaved over 200grams. Huge difference in handling.
Now I need to get WCE driveshafts as stock ones do not last and Lightning ones I use are quite heavy. (all 4 are over 20grams over stock )
If rc8b was available in decemeber last year i would get it. The b version solved all the issues i did not like on the previous version.
Stock D8 has few issues that have been solved by HB but you will have to buy those upgraded parts and Unless HB releases the WC edition RC8B is the way to go.

HMMM, interesting. This is the feedback I was hoping for, I had no idea the
D8 was a heavy weight. With all the plastic I assumed it would be average if not lighter than most.
Anything else you care to add ?
Can you please post a few pics of your race rig.
