Arrow Weight

I think that these cars would handle a lot better if you move around and eliminate some of the weight they have on them.

Some of my Ideas for losing weight and lowering the center of gravity can be read in this thread. I will list some main ideas for those who don't wanna read the other thread.
My idea is to make the chassis into a pan chassis, cut out the windows of my body, and somehow relocate or use a different battery.

What about wiring the layman dual cells in parrallel for more runtime, more current, and you could mount them in the bottum of the chassis for a lower center of gravity.

I was thinking though and if I did the button cells in parralel i could put them flat on the buttom of the chassis and put the pcb right on top of it.

lowering/ lightening my clear skyline body

Has anyone done mods like these? I have read that some of you(and me) can tell the difference in handling between two bodies. If you can tell that diference, imagine the difference these mods would make.

The reason I am bringing this back up is that I really think that with all those mods done, The car would handle completey different, hopefully in a better way.
