I tape the batteries together in that staggered configuration. There is a small piece of foam under the front of the lower pack to keep it from moving forward.
I've been running my EB48 like this since last June and I haven't had any problems with the batteries moving around.
When I run 2 shorty packs my car is 7lb, 2 oz. My track does not require a minimum weight for ebuggy.

SNIP...
So, here is my question
For those running the vehicle in a 2S configuration, what is the running weight you are seeing assuming heavy electronics and what mods have you done recently to make minimum weight if you track requires it?
I am considering doing this with my EB48, set it up basically the same as my SCT410 but use the Tekin HD motor of something similar in power, can then just fully standardize on one battery type.
