What's wrong with the brass rear hinge pin holders and wedges for the chassis?

They're massively/stupidly expensive for one.

i recently made my own weight and will test the car tomorow evening on my local track . +100gr on scale , i made it because i find the 2015 on shorty setup a little jumpy in the rear, and i wont go to saddle because the weigt will be more towards the front , and i don't want that.

The last race i entered i installed the original plastic again , and adjusted the rear shocks a little softer , the Car runs better without the brass weight. Ik was getting increased rear tyre wear , and wagen the rears where half gone , the grip dropped drasticly ' so not good , maybe give it z'n other try in the winter , wel i Will race on indoor carpet.
