To make a shaft drive in a LIPO future the shaft will need to be to the side.
Belt's are supreme with side mount drive trains. But I like shaft drive. That looks like a good car for sub-c batteries. Side mount shafts wouldn't be a good idea if you were to get T-boned. Nice car.

The title is kind of misleading since this isn't an XRay product.
The era of shaft drive has probably passed, but I don't think it would be completely ruled out by switching to LiPo. The LiPo cells are actually quite thin, and might be able to fit under a shaft if the packs were designed in that sort of way. You could locate electronics on the opposite side of the motor with the batteries down the center and probably get some decent balance.
I'm just a couch engineer when it comes to R/C cars, though.

The thread title is a little off, but who the F cares! It's really cool to see cars like this and being different makes it even cooler
More power to the companys like Riemon, BMI, Diggity designs, etc.....
