Re: designing a better kit frame.
Cool idea. Very similar to some ideas that I had been meditating on. For bonus points, you could make sure the axles are spaced properly for an integer number of #25 or #35 chain links. Also be sure to offer a bearing block with a dropped center for anyone who wants to do 6/8WD.

Given the number of teams that used AndyMark Nanotubes this year, I would bet that a solid implementation of this would see plenty of interest from teams.
