The g2r has got the batteries mounted real low, and weights next to nothing.

The vantage chassis is maybe lighter, but you need to make a batterietray which would make it most likely heavier than the g2r.

Weight isn't all. The lighter is not 'the better' for racing you don't want your truck to be too light, you'll get pushed around quite easy. A low CG however would help with the handling. With the low possition of the batteries on the g2r you can't go wrong.
