Default Lipo in an S44

Im wondering about going to Lipo. Im wondering if anyone has run Lipo in an S44. and what the ballance was like. and stability of the car. also did you end up adding alot of lead to the back end to keep the rear down?

I love my car atm its helped me a great deal but i do think that i need to make the move over to lipo now

i ran a lipo'd s44 in belgium and the car felt very good. Only added 30g of lead in the rear batt slots and she felt sweeeeet. Running gm saddles i managed to fit all electrics on the chassis too, no speedo shelf needed.
Got freud on here running his the same and he was a very happy chappy...
