I guess you must run i lipo in the car otherwise you have too much weight which is completely of the centre line of the car.
The modern lipo battery's are small enough to fit underneath the tank, even in the 7xx configuration.

But off course it's better then the same old again like most manufactures are doing.

Hope to see a lot more serpents back to the track because currently it's just plain boring with all the xray's.
You cant think like that. The weight of the gas tank is a variable. It changes when its full and when its empty. The weight of the battery will be the same, full or empty, thus the way they re-arranged the tray components with the rest of the car will make it more balanced.
