Isnt that the 12th scale? Also, when tilting an engine, it starts raising first, so its not a lower CG Though more CG is centered...
And you've won the Best Internet Grammar Award. Your insult was so hard to understand, I can only laugh! Now, back on topic.

I'll put this in terms that even Mr. rezenclowd3 can understand. When the things that stick up from the car/truck/anything with wheels, don't stick up as far, that makes the C.G. lower. C.G. stands for Center of Gravity. So when you say things like "Though more CG is centered" it sounds like "Automobile Car", or "Flying Airplane"...

I like the idea, and as I said, I'm surprised it hasn't been tried on an 8th scale buggy before. The trickiest part would be the throttle linkage. I've seen a similar attempt when Serpent made that F-1 car:
