With how close your middle wheels are to eachother, I can imagine your drive doing a lot of rocking back and forth, which is undesirable.

Unless, of course, there's no dropped wheels in this design. If that's the case, ignore what I just said.
All right! I was wondering if the space was large enough. And just out of curiosity, how would having no drop work?
