 That brings up the question of suspension.
Originally I had planed a spring or torsion bar type suspension but am 
currently going for the ridged option as it is far simpler.
 At this scale/ weight/ speed I can't see it being anything more than a wow 
factor.  Wile the down side would be extra weigh, complexity and the 
increased chance of throwing a track.
