Chris , as you break things or continually get outbraked into the corners
then those other things will have to change.
But build it and have a good time. The snow will leave soon-time to get
out to the garage
Just letting you know what the min weight is.

Chris, you will indeed be one up on the crowd if you get your chassis
developed by running in FS now.
The min weight for FS is 750# without driver.
That's about 950# with the average 200# driver.
That should allow you to incorporate all the extra strengthening needed in
the chassis to accommodate the larger motor weight and HP/torque, larger
axles, larger uprights, and larger brakes.
