    stampede with 2s lipos need to keep my nose on the ground?

    well all i finally got me some lipo batterys. I went with the venom VEN-15030 2 cell lipo battery and an onyx 235 charger. Just finished running the first battery after its maiden charge and i love all the extra speed over the stock battery. Im only having 1 lil issue but one of them is from running the stock tires without taping them im getting lots of ballooninh.
    My front tires never seem to come more than an inch or so off the ground they never touch the ground for the most part either so steering at full throttle is kinda a pain so whats an easy and safe way to add weight to the front of my truck to keep it a lil more grounded.

    This.

    Learning how to control the thing is part of the fun. Every newbie who tries mine thinks digitally. All forward, all reverse, all left, or all right. I like that if I go full throttle, its not controllable. Adds challenge. Coordinating throttle and steering comes with practice. I ease off the throttle to turn, so my front tires bite. Its not a matter of holding full throttle and having complete control. That would be boring...
