FLM / aluminum weight solution - 03.05.2007, 01:09 AM

anyone else running FLM parts or a lot of aluminum parts? what are you doing to solve the increased weight issue? the truck is noticeably slower. i have the chassis and front and rear combo bulk. do you care? do you not care? i don't care that i can't pop wheelies anymore, but i do care that i've lost so much speed.

upgrade motor? run only 7 cell from now on? any other suggestions?

Lipo's offer great help in making a truck lighter.
