the lower does look to be on the inside of the wheel. I don't remember if that's how it was for the worlds. But yes, the lower is more solid like everyone has been doing. The lower arms stiffness on the mtc2 I felt was weakness on flat high bite tracks.

... or maybe something like that? Lower arms HANGING from some brigde? Disclaimer: It's not the MTC3!

The screws heads coming out of the rear of the body is interesting… internal body mounts?

I saw those as well and also noticed there looked to be some sort of arm/post coming off the rear of the wheel hubs in the reflection, maybe an unsprung body mount?

Don't go that wild with your guesses. It's got to sell to people, not engineer aliens :) Let's see when they finally present it.

No carbon chassis. That might rule it out in a lot of places where the grip is low such as the UK outdoors

or flex and top decks can make the platform as stiff as you need. Rather switch top decks than chassis imo.

Yer good point. One particular outdoor track i go to is very rough, not sure if alu would suffer quicker wear wise

So the MTC3 drivers at TITC don't need to fear a Coelho this year ;). 4mm carbon protecting them...

The motor mount and split deck literally move up and down, so that may help with low grip situation. When I saw the car, the split decks were angled down towards the motor mount

I know. I saw it as well. Didn't want to give away that special feature lol. TBH I hope the tribal anodizing isnt a one off thing.

BTW, I think I ran into you at the worlds if you're the guy that couldn't wait for the bbq lol
