3Racing Lead Balance Weight with Graphite Pattern

3 RACING bw04 5g 10g wtWEB copy

Back when I started racing around 1986, everyone was concerned with how they could make their vehicle lighter. Heck, people used to drill Swiss Cheese-looking holes in their chassis to save weight!  Boy oh boy have times changed. Today you’ll find people doing just the opposite, adding weight to a vehicle to gain steering, traction or simply to better balance a vehicle from left to right.  Many manufacturers make lead weights in various sizes and for the most part, all of the pieces of lead weight look the same. Until now! 3Racing now offers some ultra-cool looking pre-cut lead weight available in 5g and 10g sections that come with a cool graphite carbon fiber pattern. No, this won’t make you faster, but it sure does look cool. In addition, the 3Racing Balance Weight Set with Graphite Pattern comes with 3M double-sided adhesive tape already applied to one side so you know the weight will stay put!

I’ve mounted 15g of weight to the front of my mid-motor and rear-motor 3Racing Cactus 2WD 1/10-scale off road vehicles and again, it looks great, stays put and this little amount of weight really helps improve steering response of the vehicles.
