I look forward to watching the community work together to make these cars as light as possible.  |
Yes, I'm starting to realize just how hard it is going to be to save weight on this car for no cost. And another thing is that some of the low hanging fruit (like the exhaust and battery) is going to take the car even further towards front weight bias. The car is already a little front heavy (51.5/48.5...not quite 50/50) but I'm thinking losing enough weight in the front to reach 50/50 is going to be quite tough.
