Mine is lowered
Mine is lowered and i think it improves the handling. I have a booster set with a 3.0 motor and it kept tipping over but since i lowered it , i have noticed that it doesn't do it as much.

I am guessing that you lowered your center of gravity on your car by lowering it.

In videogames a car with low ride height has better handling and is more stable than a car with a high ride height then again thats just videogames (Tokyo Xtreme Racer to be precise)

He's got some good suggestions on improving performance, and just how to lower your car. And yes, a lower center of gravity improves performance, not sure how measurable it would be in a mini R/C though.

tis mod gave me a better ride, it is a LXX body on an auto modellista chasis. I changed the stock wheels to ZZ wheels, and now it has a better center of gravity, which allows high speed and better trning on low gear zz red gears are used  Any of you want a great ride and ZZ handeling,? i prefer this realistic racer mod.

Hmmm... I am thinking of lowering my car, but I don't know which is better. Should I lower my body? Or, the chassis part?

Oh yea, forgot to ask. What do I do with the leftover space? Like , if I make the hole bigger, there will be space leftover. What do I do with it? Fill it in? With what?
