Yea it does look uncomfortable and I have no pics of the suspension but I am trying to create something using these designs btw what is the vehicle in your avatar called btw I have been searching tirelessly:mad:

I am using solidworks and AutoDesk inventor to design the chassis and other components.
I have another program that specializes in bending sheet metal but I am not using that yet.

what I want to create is a two seater (not entirely sure about 2 seats) hybrid that will keep the feeling of a go kart , something like this.
the problem is I dont know the handling issues of making a two seater and I would love to make a 2 seater but wouldn't that mean more weight and make it slower -.-
2 seats or one :confused:

with a body like this extended , a little wider and made more comfortable for the driver.

this is a good example of what I am trying to design again (F1 theme) http://www.diygokarts.com/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=12299&stc=1&thumb=1&d=1302860457
but a little bigger and more comfortable reason is because if its not comfortable to drive then I proble wont drive it as much which is what I am trying to avoid.

EDIT: You could say I am leaning toward a 1 seat design just hope my bro wont flame me for not making it seat so he could ride along >>

In your link in post 21, I believe that is from the same family of those collegiate buggies I posted earlier. It's called Formula SAE. It's an intercollegiate competition where they take a CBR600 engine and build a mini formula 1 car around it. Those things go 0-60 in < 3.0 seconds and hit about 150 MPH. Fowler's icon is an Airel Atom.
