Hey all,

I have spent well over 5 hours searching for plans / blueprints for a mid-engine chassis, but no avail. I've found multiple plans for the regular front engine locost though. Are there plans or at least dimensions for a mid engine chassis? I do plan on making it a BEC, but any mid-engine plans would be helpful at this point.

thanks!

what do you have software wise that you can use to look at models? I can send you something.

Plan on putting up everything on kickstarter and releasing all the designed for free too... stay tuned for that.

You can build the most awesome thing in the world but at some point, an 80yr old man in a crx is probably going kick your butt on the track... don't ask me how I know.
