Default Aluminium dog bones /out drives

Hi all

Running on high traction carpet shorty lw chassis and last weighed just over 1800gm. Probably less now with indoor tyres.

But I'll be running a 100c shorty that will increase the weight to maybe another 80gm.

I was wondering do the aluminum centre dog bones,alu out drives help much? Are they a bit overkill?

Also is it the 68/76mm ones I want for the bmax 4 iii ?

Thanks!

Performance

What I mean is with reduced weight... Is it very noticeable

It's a heavy car. Alloy propshafts will save a few grammes, but not the sort of saving to make a difference.

If you formulate your question better next time, anyone could help you in the first reply

Well why would anyone use them in the first place...
And when I say overkill I would've thought it was obvious..

I guess not
