Re: pic: My first Chassis

It's difficult to see some of the details. A few other views of the assembly would be nice to have, at the very least to answer some questions like:

What gearboxes are you running? How are they supported?
What wheels are those? Do you have a drop center? How much drop?
Is the center wheel directly driven? Belt or chain to the outer wheels?

I like the consistent lightening pattern. It's a cool aesthetic, although you could consider other materials that could be lighter or provide more stiffness to the chassis for the bellypan (like wood).

Overall it looks very nice.
