Hi,

I know a lot of drivers now stick down the servo or use the centre servo mount but Is there much benifit in cutting off the nub on the side of the chassis or will you not really notice much difference in the handling?

If the track has many left-hand high speed corners you are going to notice that the car will stop less due to less scrubbing in those corners. It will not make a huge difference however.

Just a quick reminder for proper eye protection, ventilation, gloves and a mask when working with cutting CF

i just did this alteration, and i also glued the edge w/ ca and black markered over that to make it look like nothing was done. Just makes it look "stock".
