Are you measuring speed with the Venom Speed meter or radar? Do you have video?

103 mph on 3s is awesome. 103 mph/11.1 volt = 9.3 mph/volt

You can try to reduce as much rear downforce as you can.  It looks like you have a little lip on the rear spoiler that can give you downforce.  If you remove this it can help your car from flipping over.  You can also try to add a front splitter or some small "dive planes" to your front end to add downforce to the front of your car.  This can help if from flipping over. Take a look at the front end of the Viper ACR:



I did this to my car and it helped to keep the car from flipping over:

Hi all

much happens on saturday (video was made by the dealer where I drove on the track so i have to get it from him these days)
So I had 3-4 runs but not as good, only Max 91,34 mph
but that was not so bad. the bad thing was on run 3 the car run out and flown with 71,46 mph into the viewers but could swerve
however, a dog sat there and was not away fast enough i had hit him at the leg, his owner has taken him into the car, he had bled ... I dont know more.
maybe it could be seen on the video.

I hope the dog is ok

I just noticed from your pics:

Make sure you cut out the entire rear end of the body so it is completely open! When its not completely open, the body captures the air flow and acts like a parachute to lift the car.  The airflow from underneath the car needs to leave the back of the car.

Add the dive planes how I did on my car.  Cut some lexan to fit around the front corner and screw them on.  Also make sure you cut the back out of your body.
