Re: Offseason 2012 chassis

this drive-train looks pretty good. one thing that i might look at is using a timing belt from the cimple box to the middle wheel. belts are generally more efficient than chain. a second thing to look into would moving the gearboxes to the middle of 2 wheels, then you only have 2 chain runs, and are less likely to break a chain because you don't have all of the drive-train going through one chain.
