Thanks, I have to take apart the rear end this weekend and clean the bearings, diff, etc. so I will see if that works. I am pretty sure that is what is happening or at least I hope it is because of how the car handles is so strange I think.
If the rear diff is too tight will the rear of the car swing out when you first accelerate out of a corner while turning? I can't seem to get on the throttle if my wheels are turned even 1% or the car fishtails so bad I go into the wall. I race rubber tire, asphalt, 19T, Brushless if this information helps.

I find this happens when my rear diff loosens too much and the spool seems to be driving it too much at that point. You can also try to add droop to the front to allow more weight transfer to the rear while on-power out the corner. Hope this helps.

The rear diff pulley will wobble left to right. That's normal.

Ok guys
What does it take to get lipos in this car?
I want to run a Trakpower gold pack
http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXRWF7&P=ML
Or one of the orion packs
http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXLXR6&P=ML
http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXNMF9&P=ML
First choice is the trakpower because trakpower/flight power have the enerland cells, which are the nicest lipos made by most poeple
Next is the orion platinum pack because kokam is also very nice lipos
And the carbon pack is not so much on the list because of how light it is, I dont want to be adding lots of weight to make the car balanced, even with the platinum pack the car at my track was LIGHT, and he didnt add any weight, and the car was on rails
Im so glad lipos are legal there now

The bullets and the pack height all fits with no mods?
I always use tape
And then with the platinum or any flat pack, I have heard of shoo goo-ing plexi glass, or lexan etc to fit in the batt slots?
Whats people using?
EDIT, Im pretty shure you use the carbon pack, but I cant find the pics, could you re post them?

Another thing you can try are these weights from NEXUS Racing. They will help keep the battery in place and help add weight while maintaining a lower center of gravity.
