Technical Summary

The Tamiya Mini 4WD Bowl Weight 3.5g in Pink from 3Racing is engineered to provide targeted inertial damping within common damper housings. It reduces high frequency chassis vibration and supports consistent tyre contact during aggressive lines.

Compatibility and Installation Considerations

Intended for use with mainstream Mini 4WD chassis types, this bowl weight integrates into mass damper mounts to shift dynamic balance. It is compatible with MS, MA, and AR chassis and should be positioned to complement front or rear damping depending on handling goals.

Tuning Impact for Racing Setups

In race tuning, the 3.5g bowl weight is a precise, low-mass option to tame pitch and roll without overloading the suspension. It pairs well with incremental spring and tyre adjustments to sharpen corner entry and reduce mid-corner oscillation for improved lap consistency.

Where should the weight be positioned for neutral balance?

Place the bowl weight near the vehicle's centre of mass or in the damper housing that affects the axis you want to stabilise. Trial small shifts fore and aft to locate the neutral point.

How does 3.5g interact with tyre compound choices?

The 3.5g mass damper increases tyre load consistency; softer compounds may gain grip from improved contact while harder compounds will benefit from more predictable weight transfer.

Recommended approach to setup changes?

Adopt incremental changes: fit the bowl weight, run timed laps, then adjust springs or tyre offset in small steps to observe handling deltas before finalising the race setup.
