I glued some stiff foam to keep my batteries back towards the back. I use Elite 5000mah 4s and they have a half inch of room to spare in the 'small battery tray.' I just finished tweaking some camber and toe settings and will give it a run here when my TX batteries finish charging. I also changed some ESC settings as I noticed the car was noticeable slower than my RC8 with the same components. Maybe its the gearing, as Im running 16/50 (geared for ~35MPH).
Ve8 uses truggy style high ratio diff gears, your have to gear to compensate.
