I have it in my 22 since last week... and I am absolutely fond of this weight !

I tried weight under the lipo (75g), that helped a lot on my favorite track (high grip, traction astro / carpet) but with your rear weight is much better : the car seems to make exactly what I think about.
There is no side effect like with the TLR rear weight : we have more traction, but the rear is still able to rotate without rolling too much.

Thanks a lot cream, you made my TLR 22 experience much better !

Haha i have no problem with that, now if you want more credit, you could also work on a rear motor weight so i can compete on dirt this winter

There is not as much room but im sure a eaviyer piece could fit there as well.

i am thinking of getting one of these as i want as much rear end grip as i can get so if my thinking is right i need one of these and to run the 3 degree anti squat ?

i mainly run 1/10th gt pan cars so i am used to having lots of rear traction as i use the power and rear end grip to steer rather than the steering if you know what i mean if i want it to go wide i just put more power on and if i want it to turn tighter i just get off the gas

For what I know most are settling for around 1 degree of anti squat. But yes the weight will give you more rear grip, But with no pendulum effect as the weight is infront of the rear wheels.

Thanks for shipping to Canada.. Got it today...

Do most people run your block with the losi weight set? I am running mainly mid high bite carpet. Thanks

Im running without on a high bite carpet track. I do have a some weight on the right side but nothing behind the wheels. The car was the fastest on the track last week.

From the feedback I'm getting, Many are not using the rear weight, but choosing to use this weight instead to get rid of the pendulum that is associated with the losi weight set.

I'll just add this quote.

When the track got very dusty the back end wants to kick out under acceleration when using the TLR rear weight kit, and also within the corner the rear end wants to come round and kick out. With the CREAM weight fitted and the TLR weight removed from the back the car is total changed, the mid corner speed is greater due to no fear of the rear end kicking out and also coming out the corner the car stays straight. All in all the new weight from CREAM increases forward and side bite.
The rear TLR weight will still also be needed on high bite tracks/conditions, just to calm the car down.

Cheers
Chris
Chris is a losi team driver, he along with sly asked me to produce product this in the first place, I'm very happy to say he is still using it. So I guess the answer is try it and which suites you best.


P.S. thanks for the feed back Jaune.
