What specifically are you trying to improve?

Don't forget they'll never handle like a buggy due to their size and having a higher C of G.

I've got a little lead in the nose of mine - but that's only because I have a 6.5 in it and it tends to try and wheelie down the straights

I run the lipo to the front and put a 75g brass plate behind the lipo, under the foam spacer.
I can't decide about weight at the front, it feels much better and more forgiving with nothing but the laptimes are faster with weight under the servo - it it much less consistent though.

What surface are you running on?
