Depends on your lipo height!

You could make it fit for sure...you just need to space the gearbox brace up to allow for that. I've already lifted mine up a little to get some thin lead under my lipo...so sure it wouldn't be an issue if you wanted it to fit.

That does assume that it's the same footprint as a pair of saddles...I don't have one so couldn't say for sure

Is there a reason for the 64g under the lipo? Do the shorty's bring the car in under weight?

I run with 15g on the servo and 15 over the nose, with saddle packs car is 1548g in total

The local tracks to me are carpet, slippery floor and astro. And I have no issues with traction or rear end grip

Lipos are already WAY lighter than the nimh-style packs they replaced, and shorty-packs are 100g lighter than standard-sized lipo packs.
