The brass rods were to primarily add weight to meet the minimum weight for the classes the cars were raced in. I made weight at the worlds (heavier body), so I didnt add any brass rods. The rods do stiffen the chassis slightly, but the primary purpose is to add the weight at the lowest point of the chassis.

I have mostly been driving the MR03 in all sorts of conditions this past year. High grip, mid grip, low grip, smooth, bumpy, very bumpy... I havent found the chassis to be too soft, but at times on high grip I wished it was just a little stiffer. I have a grey chassis sitting in a box that I should setup for those situations to compare the difference... All of my other cars have the original black chassis.
