I checked the transmission screws,they're snug and only come through the motor plate by about 1 thread. The motor screws are pretty tight, I bumped them up to the 2.5mm size hex like most of the rest of the truck had so I could avoid stripping then out. How tight should those be?

This made me 50/50 left to right and 44/56 front to rear on my weight distribution. I would like to add a bit more lead in the center chassis in the slots on each side, but I am having trouble getting it in, I dont want to break the sides out.
Is that with the body on? I'm at 6lbs. 7oz. ready to run.

body off, I dont think 6lbs 7oz is too heavy losi clams to be 6.75 lbs as a roller so if we get close to that rtr then were still way lighter then them. With motor and all the other electronics I think they roll around 8 lbs.

No. That truck is on an order basis because only two regular customers run that Truck. It'd be in on Wed if you wanted me to order it. I have to convince the boss to bring in parts cause he's worried they will sit due to Hobbytown having our butts with the racers.

When do you need it?

That they will get it right. I do not think a ft version of this truck will be right. Maybe v3 I really think there are too many variables (options) and this is such a different beast that they don't know what will be right for a while. It takes a community to get all the bugs out.
