and i agree with blackedoutrevo, there are plenty of tough belt cars already made, they only need to beef it up a little to handle the extra weight and strain of 1/8th scale offroad racing and itd be fine. plus just think if your battery is sitting in the perefect middle you dont have to worry about how big of a battery you run so much like we do now for balance, i mean you could run a 6s 5000 battery in the buggy with a 1500-1700 kv motor and we could easily run 30 minute mains with NO stops
, also the chassis could be very narrow since everything sits on the center......
plus to help keep dirt out there wouldnt need to be any holes in the bottom of the chassis and the mud guards could wrap all the way around to the diff housing in the rear and use velcro for the body thus helping keep most all of teh dirt out.
