Finally got to run her yesterday. Rear end was a little unstable at first. Made a couple of changes but removing the center and rear braces had the most effect. By the end of the night was getting really comfortable with the buggy and my lap times started to drop. Still not perfect but still got lots of things to try. On one outing I did hit someone as I was going full bore down the straight. They decided to jump across the track and into my way...bam!!!! Flipped her back up and continued driving. When I finally pulled in the only damage I could see was a small gouge on the front bumper. Nothing broken. Nothing bent.

I have my EB48.3 almost complete.
Here is what the fit of the XR8 Plus and the new Hobbywing 4274 G2 2250kv motor looks like (this is the longer "truggy" motor).

The bigger holes / less # should have more dampening but less pack. I wouldn't run anything other than kit pistons unless you're on a seriously rough track.

OK quick question, hopefully it won't get into a big debate.
My current battery (6700mah) is 606 grams, my truck total weight is 7.9 pounds. I recent seen a 5000mah that weighs 468 grams. Difference of 138 grams. So trading out batteries would bring me down to about 7.4 pounds wet.
Is that 5 ounces going to make a noticeable difference? Or will it be minute to where it's not worth trading out batteries and spending the 120 for (2) of 5000mah?
Thanks.

If you run the 6500 (or something similar to it's weight), your car will be closer to 50-50 balance left to right. One of the guys posted a pic of his car on the scales with the 6500 and Tekin electronics and he was dead on.
So my suggestion is keep your heavier battery as it better for our car

Need a setup advice... I run almost stock setup and have a problem with sudden traction lost when driving through a tight corner. It turns well, I keep turning, waiting till turn ends and suddenly the car looses rear and spins. What shall I change in the setup to get rid of that strange behavior?

eb48.3 ride height set up
To achieve 27 or 28mm ride height in the front I have to turn the shock nut all the way down!!! and barely make to 28mm. (Back is 29mm) (Joe Bornhorst Southern nats. set up)..... I had a team driver look at it and we could figure it out. Check every connection to assure correct but could not find anything wrong.. He thought I might have gotten a wrong spring size in the kit so he gave me some longer springs but when I got home I checked and the 65mm black front springs are correct!
He runs a 27mm front ride height and his shock not was about on the middle of the threads... like I said I have to run nut all the way to bottom of threads to get 27mm! Does any one have a suggestion or clue why this is??
Thank you!

Thanks guys. You guys saved me 120 bucks. Lol.
Maybe I should've weighed my motor, esc, servo and rx. That would've given me a better idea of a balanced truck. But I'm sure they weigh more than 468 grams.
