If i could afford it, i would use 2024-T3 aluminum, this stuff is is like steel, it's light, and has superior fatigue resistance.
Here is another pic of top view. If anyone wants to view a 3D file of the assembly, just let me know. I can email it to you.

IMO the 7075-T6 would be the way to go if designed right. Look at the supermaxx parts. You rarely ever hear about their parts failing. Beautiful chassis though. I wouldnt skimp out of its design and material. Of course this drives the cost up.
