Hello!

Ok, it´s heavy. But how is she on the track?
Had my 501X WE at 1800 grams (with Nimh batteries), worked just fine.

My 511 weighs 1680 with:
  • IB5200 cells
  • Novak Ballistic
  • LRP SXX TC (without cooling fan)
  • Futaba 9550 servo
  • Transponder
  • Spektrum receiver
  • Relux wheels with Holeshot tires
  • alu caster block
  • alu hub rear
  • My LiPo trays (approx 7 grams)
  • My Long rear diff cover (approx 14 grams)
  • My Short front diff cover (appox 7 grams)
  • 511 body and undertray + wing.
Other than that standard (high traction arms etc). No titanium or alu screws.

Mine car worked fine too I think that if the car will have smaller weight (at least 1700 or less) it will works even better.
By my car there is other screws - Square, not titanium.
The Speed Passion is heavier than LRP SXX, but not much more.
