dual battery control??

how do you keep your cars from flipping over? i installed some springs on the front and it seems to help a little bit but it still aint that hard to flip over even on thick carpet. any suggestions?

If you're asking how to NOT barrel roll going into a turn at full throttle with a Dual-Cell mod, then I'd say you don't have much of a chance...But.

Here's a few thoughts...

- Pulse the throttle
Instead of running it full sauce into the turn (which you KNOW is going to cause the roll), let off the gas and let it roll into the turn. Then when it's most of the way through the turn gas it up again.

- Use harder compound tires
The harder the compound, the easier it'll drift. You're barreling because the tires are holding instead of giving.

Good luck.

Hi peeps,,

I don't want to repost an old thread,, and I don't know how to link it here,, but my solution to your flipping problems can be found if you do a search of this forum for

bunta's mod

it's the second thread called bunta's "secret" mod!! In that thread I describe a wing that goes under the car that keeps your car from flipping. It's not the easiest to find....

good luck with the mods

-Bunta

hmm seems like a good idea. i think ill add more weight to the rear first since watchin your car do wheelies is pretty fun.

HARD TIRES in front does it for me, lets the front end push while turning. I use the Microsizer hard ribbed in front.
