What Motor and ESC? What radio and receiver? What are the battery specs (C rating)?

Glitching is caused usually but a rapid lose of signal causing the ESC to reset. This can be caused by the receiver or the ESC if you do not have enough current carrying capacity. Most often you need a glitch buster capacitor for your receiver to fix this. If that is not enough you may have to jump to an external BEC. In rare cases the motor and ESC are drawing more current than the battery can delivery and the overall system voltage drops which results in a stutter or even a brown out.

Also recognize that you have added 5 oz. to your car so it is drawing more current already.
