supra becoming a problem.......

not only is it small for 6 cell and adding stuff under the hood, when i put the supra top on the wheels tend to have more strain on them and go slower. and this is when i am holding the car in the air. i have looked for rubbing but see none. any suggestions. i am thinking about just getting a better differnt 1/25 body

The gears are probably too close. You won't see it when the body isn't on because the gears get closer when you put the body on with the extra 2 cells on top. Try installing you 2 cells in the back.

It might be the motor, I had one just kinda die on me after some internal modding. It would only run at about 20%.
