thx strider! ya this thread is all about pics, show us what you end up with.
the other thing about using some metal for the wheel extensions--especially with the heavier brass caps I used on one of me cars, is that even after you let off the gas, the car continues coasting longer (probably more angular momentum?-failed physics) instead of a dead stop with lighter all plastic set up. Nice for speed control, but dual batt cars simply need real estate to go full tilt, to drive anything technical you more or less have to do Actofgod's potentiometer mod to detune them.
Anyway, in case you want to know--my cars, if they have the space can go full speed and handle a turn without spinning out and there is definitely no more flipping--the weight of the metal wheels with the traction of the 100% silicone tire coating keeps the back end behind the car and on the ground--just my take on the whole thing. In the front end I have the rcmod springs, and 3 steering return springs on the little peg.--that was the best mod I did--just for the dual batt cars. With clean rear tires I can get the car going backwards then jam it forward and ride a wheelie--with both batteries inside the chassis.
