If the center of gravity is high, the buggy is more likely to tip over because the weight shifts dramatically to one side. A lower CG keeps the weight distribution closer to the ground, reducing the chances of rolling over. A lower CG also means that more of the buggy\u2019s weight stays closer to the surface, reducing body roll during turns. This allows the tires to maintain better contact with the ground, giving the car more grip and making turns smoother and more controlled.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"UpgradeWORKS DT03 low CG kit track test\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/L2eSSRxQcgk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"UpgradeWORKS low CG mount kit for DT03\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/0owhssBKvfo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"RCPRESS vid Tamiya Manta Ray low CG\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zF2El6j2GCo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When a buggy takes a turn at high speed, centripetal force acts towards the center of the turn, while inertia tries to push the buggy outward.
