Given that you've designated it as a pushcar it might be a bit low in the front?
You risk putting the pushbar through the grille.
Easilly solved by attaching a big lump of wood to the front.
I recomend a piece of balsa stained with soy sauce "bolted" to some sort of scratched up frame (this one is fixed to the over-riders).

Nice job there Michael. I don't mind it as a pushcar or as a stand alone machine. It looks mean and could pass as a 'Q' car - you know, standard looking but with 1000HP waiting to be unleashed on some unsuspecting hoon. Twisted Evil
