If you go to CD Media and search FRC254 or FRC968. They have many awesome pics of their chassis that is dubbed "WestCoast Drive".

Key Features are:

-Cantilever Wheels
-Direct Drive
-Inline system
-CAMS
-Sliding Bearing Blocks
-Small Wheels (We goofed, big wheels are ugly )

There are a few other tidbits, but that should sum it up.
