    It almost looks like it is chain driven or belt driven if you look in the middle of the arm right below the coilovers it looks like theres a rotor there.

    Cog belts. Yep, not chains. I heard of this car a long time ago. No CV's binding, Travel is only limited by the length of the arms and the strength of the belts, more or less.

    You can tell the final tuning hadn't been going so well.... He was definatley going into a race assuming a bunch of guys were gonna get the chance to tap him and pass him... Nice bumper/loading dock.

    I took this photo yesterday at the MORE Damzl 250 in Lucerne Valley. I don't think this car even made 1 lap.

    it's like the reduction boxes on an old vw bus, or a h1. They work pretty good in those applications.
