looks good ay, you gotta wonder about the unsprung weight though with car. those arms have those alloy support beams going through them, and the cvd's and hub's look pritty chunky. infact everything looks chunky, even the drivetrain.

do you recon they made the drivetrain a little heavier to give the car more rotating mass to counteract the friction (possibly) caused by the 3 belt design? even the sway bar design looks chunky

also how would that chassis perform turning left to right? it has that big hole for the batteries on one side that must take away some stiffness from that side of the chassis i'm guessing?
