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

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

You got it!

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

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

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

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

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

Along side Dadio, which offered me any 3d printing I needed, and will be on the side of this car as "Dadio Designs"...I picked up another local sponsor today...$500 check...and another $1000 if I break the record!..so cool some people actually dig it!

Got started on electrics..a long way to go

$75 to $100 per run on mid-power engines....I could do better with High power long burn engines, but I can't get them!..need a license

New Custom Works body painted by "The Diamond One"...decals custom made from MCI
