We used some old lead core solder in holes in the bottom of the car to bring up the weight. Very heavy for its size and easy to shape without melting. Might be less offensive to the judge's sensibilities - though I assume they still teach riflery in the scouts so I'm not sure why something bullet shaped would be too offensive. I think we used a plastic friendly lithium grease on the axles that seemed to help a bit too. I liked the tip on the negative camber. That never occurred to me.
One tip though - at least try to make it look like something the kid could have built (cough, *turbocon86*, cough).
