I imagine that there is more than meets the eye with this chassis besides it being an 8 wheel, 4 center IFI w/ Blue Nitrile and 4 outer omnis? I don't see much for shifting, though I don't have much experience with custom shifters. (Only have experience with AM Supers)
I see a rectangular hole in the back that I'm going to say is for a battery. And given there are no openings in your chassis, I'd say that you're designing an over the bumper collection system.

Anyways, that CNC laser job looks amazing! Competing against the Iron Lions is always a pleasure, and I look forward to next year! Perhaps we can help you scout again? (Well, more you helping us! )
