Rear motor arms on a MM should be mounted opposite? L>R R>L?

It gives more traction? Where? Mid corner? Going in? Coming out? Side bite? Forward grip?

I have great forward grip, I would like a little more side bite coming out of corners. 17.5 car running treaded tires. Usually Very well conditioned green Dirt webs, which are always great, but if I can get a little bit more drive out of the corners, I could do even better.

Yes, they are swapped L/R. They give a slightly shorter wheelbase which puts a little more weight on the back tyres. This will give more rear bite, especially on corner exit. You also get slightly more rear grip under brakes.
