    Interesting car! It will be fun watching this build, Steve. I like the swing suspension for the rear axle.

    OK maybe it’s obvious but where are you planning to put the engine on this one? If you’re putting it in the front that would be nice to see that you could use an exhaust pipe that would look like all the fake exhaust pipes. Then you could run a chain down the length of the chassis to the rear suspension pivot plant and then have a second gear from the idler to the drive axle so that as the suspension moves, it won’t caused the chain to derail. Of course you need The idler arm and drive axle set up, even if you put the engine on the rear deck.

      it will be mounted on a swing arm under the seat and connected to the axle via a chain, just like a standard cyclekart

      @@stevevinson6030 The basic geometry if you don’t have an idler arm at the pivot point, will cause the chain to get tight and possibly damage the engine or axle or chain when the spring compresses making the axle, go up, which will swing away from the engine. When the axle is going down as the suspension recovers or drops down, some, it will become slack, and the chain can derail.
