The 5mm has been taken out of the front of the car, between the servo and the lipo. By moving the lipos to a cross chassis location it moves the weight rearwards, which will help with rear traction but also take weight, and therefore grip, away from the front. Taking the 5mm out of the front should help keep some weight over the front axle, so you get more rear traction but without losing front end bite.
That's the theory anyway, seems to be working so far - just need to see how it goes tomorrow at the National...
