Hi,

right now I'm in the progress of making a Technic chassis with the same
wheels and roughly the same dimensions as 8440 and 8445 (and 2556).  In
addition, it has all round independent suspension (with one small shock
absorber per wheel), front wheel steering, rear wheel drive and a V6.

The chassis is fairly complete now, but I'm planning to make a racing
car like body for it as well.  Perhaps something which looks like a
Lotus 7, but I'm not really sure yet.  If you want to take a look at the
chassis for some ideas, please go to
