I wouldn't bother thinking too much about the weight of the XMODS cars. For their scale and weight, it wouldn't mean much. Reducing the weight on your XMODS wouldn't give any handling or off the line increase that would be substantially greater than if you don't reduce weight. Besides, you may even weaken its structure.

yea but you can also reduce weight by taking off the body and drive wuthout the body. thats what i do cause i have a lancer and i put the wide bodykits on it and it wont even turn so then so for my car to look cool without the body i painted some of the parts purple

Lets say no body=Damage to you're chassis.
body=Damage to you're body.
Being a retard=No more xmod.
Racing outside=Scratches, damage to body, damage to chassis, scratches to chassis, and brokin' parts like body-kit over heated motor ext.

if you got a gen 1 you could take off that wierd plastic baige colored thing on the front of it over the front suspension cause to me it serves no perpous what so ever and i took mine off ( and lost it) and mine works the same and it is lighter cause no more ugly plastic thing
