Baker18 - Yes there are screws on the car you can remove to give the car more flex. This may help you car some, but if your car is very loose it maybe the tires you're using or the surface you're running on. Post on here what tires you are using and the kind of surface you're running on also very important is the surface preped with anything like sugar water,soda,VHT, etc.... or is it Carpet.
As far as the screws go if you bought the car new it comes with a fantastic tunning guide with a diagram on how to increase the flex by removing screws. If you got the car second hand check out Xrays website you can download the manuel and the set up book

Got my plate today. Thing is hot, thanks!

It actually looks like black fiber-glass.
