Early stages of the body...4 sections...sections will be hand made from lexan sheets, there will be a stabilizer fin in the back and winglets up front...skinny aluminum rear wheels coming too

Made some revisions on the suspension..real smooth now!...that's a front shock from the Avante

I am gonna make the body (i hope)....pure custom..I got some ideas but it's gonna be a struggle

Suspension system done...works perfect!...plus it has adjustible ride height in the middle

This really is a detailed Epic build...nice job!

You got it!

-36" wheelbase
-39" lenth
-1.23lbs currently
-10mm front ride height

Yup

Made some headway today...99% of the stuff is just thoughts in my head...but I have the front steering system figured out, which was gonna be a big hurdle...it's a single wheel inside the body in the chassis, and the chassis is very narrow...pics to come soon

Thanks you guys, appreciate the love! Frankentruck all the way for me! What should I use to upload images next time?? It's also worth noting that you may need to resize your pics to be under the 3 MB max file size. On my desktop/laptop I use Image Resizer , but there are free online ones as well. O...

Same here...always liked the car...but this is just Perfection at its finest

Ohhh...she'll go straight...won't be like The Max Q!

Yes, as R6cowboy mention, I-57 dragstrip is about 25 mins away...I can test it there when all winter when they are closed..I hope
