Default Vendetta speed

Wow i put the ultra high rpm motor in my vendetta buggy and does she fly.Which brings me to my first question.when i make kind of sharp turns at speed my buggy flips.i have stiff springs all the way around.do i need softer springs in the rear or what?also i have the front suspension as high as it can go for better ground clearance clearance.

Part of what you might be experiencing is traction rolling. This is caused by the tires biting too much on the ground and the car just flips. Though possibly it could be your ride height, if you can try lowering it a bit.
I don't think that the springs are causing it, personally.
