looks fantastic!!

but you should think about a slipper clutch. not because of the drivetrain, which looks solid, but the plastic teeth of the plastic-main-gear (dunno the word in english). I had that problem in my overpowered 1/10 buggy. when you jump and the buggy is landing, even with no throttle, it happend that the theeth just got "shaved" away (delrin). I think it was due to the mass inertia/torque of the motor. sure, I'm an average skilled driver, but that won't happen with basic motors.
