Not now.
Optimisation is not finished yet.

What ever happened to this car? It would have been great to see this car competing at the Electric Worlds.

The radial dampers in the flesh.. I figured this car was a lost cause.

What I love is the shaft drive without the torque steer.
What I don't love is the Carbon arms. Would prefer traditional plastic arms.
What I am unsure about is the dampeners. I think I would still rather have traditional shock absorbers and shock towers.

+1

I think it could have been on the market already if those where the case.

Why design just another TC. I think this car is awesome and would love to see one in action. Can anyone report on when we might be see or be available in the US.

Torque steer in created by placing the motor parallel to the chassis like the TC4. For lower turn motors (mod) this was a big problem, for high turn (stock) it was not as noticable.

By placing the motor perpendicular to the chassis, like today's belt cars, you eliminate this problem.

This is why all the car makers went to belt transmissions.

This car solved this issue by adding bevel gears from the spear gear to the drive-shaft. Over-all the shaft drive car should be quicker out of a corner because there's no belt stretch.
