Default Does the world need another TC3???

As I stated before.... but nobody seemed to read.... ALL shaft tourers will basically be TC3 clones. You can flip the motor and batteries all you want... it will still be the same due to the inherant traits of the shaft!! Try as you might you can't beat physics....

As was stated earlier he wants to reuse the drivetrain, and suspension... BUT make a car that is different from the origional..... Shaft cars can't be that much different from the origional!!


WHY belts?!?!?!?
So you guys may not be totally enthusiastic about belt cars, but you can take the origional drive train, mix and match diffs, pulleys, and belts to get what you want!! making a totally different car! Not to mention battery pack style (in-line, 2+4,3+3, 5+1 if you want!) Place the cells anywhere you want (6 down 1 side, saddles midship, saddles post motor, ect.) The motor can also go just about anywhere on the chassis........
