well i need a huge motor to get this beast moving,and i plan on it being slowish,but i want it to be able to actual GO thats why i was thinking a golfcart motor as the main and a large rc car can as the steering,its gotta be able to go up ramps too,no way in hell am i lifting this thing into my car for transportation! but keep in mind i wanted this to be gas powered but i saw the rules too late XD
