just been looking at your design and i understand that the inboard suspension design is better becouse of space but the idear of inboard suspension is to lower the C/G but its a compromise as the suspension doesnt work as well as the conventional way. plus does look cool .
ive looked at where the shock absorber are on your car and plus all the extra weight to get the shock absorber to where they are and it seems to have a much higher C/G than a conventional front suspension so it seems to me that having inboard suspension in the way you have done it is to much of a compromise. also with my experience with a fwd touring car i used to race yokomo yrf2 sp and also am running atm a tamiya m05 ra and having trailing arms rather the more tradional suspension arms does work alot better.

but even though i think there are a couple of things wrong your work on the car does look sexy
