Remove any drag brake from your radio. These steps will solve your issue. You can free it up more by going to the narrow setup which is what I did.

#2 Make sure tire choice is correct. Then try a square pack that's what I run and it is hooked up. I like my cars a little heavier and settled feeling. This light crap is for AE fanboys that spend a ton of money on worthless mods. (I'm joking here don't flame AE guys). Or am I?????

#3 I haven't noticed this issue yet. But if I do get it first thing I'd do is glue the plastic inserts into the aluminum bulkhead. I had to do this when I ran Serpent cars they did this notoriously. When the plastic wears out just knock them out of the bulkhead and put new ones in.
+1 on the square pack. Saddle packs work great as well.
