Default Chainsaw Powered Car

Hey...
I'm the new guy.

Am working on my first ever RC project, which involves a 47cc McCulloch chainsaw motor.
Just thought I'd throw you a couple of pictures and see what your comments are.
A lot has changed since these pictures, but the general setup is still the same.
It will run from 14 cogs from the sprocket on the motor, to 28 cogs on the first axle, then another chain from the small one (14 cogs again) to the large one on the rear axle, which is also 28 cogs.

Note how well the hub, holding the sprocket fits on the teeth on the clutch.
Like it was made for it.




Please comment.
