i searched but didnt find anything, is there a way to get rid of or at least lower how much torque twist i have to keep that right front tire touching as much as possible?
 
Yeap there's lots of way. Go to RCC and search for torque twist. You can add a spacer where the 3 link attaches to the rear axle, this will increase the link of your upper links aby about 1/4 inch. You can also add a spacer or run a stiffer spring and/or heavier oil in the rear shock opposite the wheel that's lifting. There are other more complicated methods, you can relocate the tranny, etc...
 
I did the stage 2 mod & still had some torque twist, so I made the following changes & it helped .

Front shocks; 30w oil & red springs(super soft)
Right rear shock;30w oil & yellow spring (firm)
Left rear shock; 40wt oil & blue spring (stock)

This just where I'm at now.Still playing around,but did improve it considerably.

I am sure I will be working on this soon to so I am going to be pulling info from everyone. I have the ARTR inbound and the Novak Goat/low CG batt plate.....Isn't the battery plate supposed to help with that? Extra weight in the one wheel?
 
It helped with mine, it provides weight to both wheels because of the servo and battery. Some people put more weight in that one wheel. Most people try to adjust the suspension to get as much of it out as they can before they go to weight.
 
I prob wouldnt feel comfortable putting more weight in one wheel then the other. IDK why, but that just makes me feel like it would throw the whole balance of the rig off. I'd deffinatly just stick with the suspension mods.
