Cool!  How did you make a 6 wheel drive Bit chasis? How did you make the trailer also?

Oh, very cool! So I see that you just put on the back two wheels. Do you need a small motor so that it doesn't go so fast it tips over?

I saw this first here...
http://www.ultimaterc.com/land/projects/6x4bit.html
This is great project and gives me something to do with all of those clone chassis I have left over. 
My cars will finally have a transporter.

ill try to answer all questions if possible
so here goes
it handles pretty good with trailor on but if you take it off it tips over on most corners(due to 2 batteries under cab)
it will broad side around corners with trailor on (that looks cool)
the trailor has hard plastic wheels so it slides great on kitchen floor
it has 2 x 2.2 motors
when i first made it. it only had 1 batt . it was very slow but then i put on 2 extra batteries now its how it should be
i haven't tried with smaller motors as i like it how it is
as for truck bodies
my wife got them on her dinner hour
i broke first one from pack trying to fit it
the second one broke when cousin crashed it flat out into fridge
so im on last one
i sent the wife to get more but she could not find them
i dont have package they came in (i made it before christmas)

Brilliant!
I was gonna make a concrete mixer lorry, It would need
2 pcbs, 1 to control the truck as normal, and the other to make the drum spin! THE drum would need a motor and fears.
Also need 2 put 2 controllers into 1 housing! of diff freqs of course!
And u would have 2 steering wires spare, With the use of a transistor u could use them to activate 2 other things, like a horn and reversing siren,or whateva u want!

This screams for a Pikes Peak edition Bit Semi racer.
Looks like another project has been started...
