There is a way around this when using the square pack .. of you replace the rear posts that hold the carbon suppor in the back with Tamiya part#
19804306, they are a little bit thinner in Diameter and they allow the Square pack to be installed and you also do not have to use as many spacers as well... it offers about 2.5mm more clearance for the battery to be installed.
I'll take a picture later so show the difference..
