Wheels and tires will remain inside the body. Kinda made a mistake there but I like the look now. I had built up the fender flares before I built the chassis or had received the new tire diameters....so if I would put the wheels flush with the outside of the body would have to raise the body way up or grind away the flares. I hope the narrow wheel width is not to detrimental to handling. I do have some spring action on the rear body mount and a single front mount that has some 'float'.
Seems the 16K Tuna motor and 9/27 gearing works the best here at 10V. It could have a bit more speed, maybe a mild 18K motor. Bill is bringing his car over tomorrow to see how it runs at Cornerstone , it has the Piranha motor installed. We will compare notes!
