It wont wheelie because of the center diff.My guess is that the center diff or the center front dogbone will be the first to go.

I am running my extra 2 cells where the 2nd motor used to be since I am now using only one motor. I made a plate out of aluminum to cover the motormount holes and also act as a battery tray for the extra cells. Here's a pic of the mocking up. I don't have a pic of it of how it looks right now. But you should get the idea.

I have debated over the use of lipo's or nimh's. And I will stay with Nimh's until the Lipo technology are more widely used. This is just my personal preference though. I know lipo's are a lot more efficient and powerful, I have tried it personally. But I would like to stick with Nimh technology for now.
