The chassis has some neat features.
In recognition of its intended use - it's gonna get crashed a lot - the chassis is very burly. There are no front and rear bulkheads, the chassis is the full length of the car. The suspension pivot mounts bolt on to the underneath of the chassis, presumably expendable in a crash.
The front and rear transmission are the mirror image of each other, every component - diff, cover, belt - is the same, front and rear. Only the suspension mounts differ.
The belt transmission is entirely enclosed once fully built up.
The diffs have a neat eccentric belt tension adjusting system.
