What weights, where to on the car, and which car. I'm sure Tony thought about it before making the weights.

Have you tried to contact him?

Personally I woundn't use velcro. So some decent servo tape maybe the way forward.

Really?? Will that not change the weight? If there was supposed to be a hole in it i'm sure Tony would have sold it like it.

PM Tony or wait for him to respond to the thread before getting your drill out.

Agreed but the chassis are awful to countersink you'll go steady and think you've got them nice and concentric then on inspection find the darn things wandered, the lipo weight's just sit in loose
