Yeah those screws are great, I built the car with them. Any screw I could put a larger cap head on I did so they should be less likely to strip the head of them. They probably weigh a fair bit more but I would rather have that than need to drill out screws.

The overhang is actually a bit of a worry for me and originally I was going to put the speedo on the other side but then changing pinions/motors would mean removing the speedo.

I considered for a while building a nerf bar to help protect the speedo but then I was too lazy to do that and i've only ran the car indoors so far.
