Even when you're on it WOT, it still nose dives? Do you have a lot of weight over the front end perhaps? Or maybe your front shocks are a bit too stiff or the oil in them is too thick?

I have no idea, other than maybe try shifting your batteries back in the battery tray if that's at all possible.

try putting more pre-load in the front shocks and less in the rear. also, make sure your throlting correctly off of the lip. dont hit the brakes or coast over the jump, just blip the throtle RIGHT at the tip of the jump. make sure you dont have any brake drag either. you should be able to push your car freely back and forth on the ground when its off and the throtle is at neutral.
