inedependant swivel rear suspension..

hey...i was thinking of how much my car rolls when i turn really fast when going really fast. How could i make it so that it won't. I came up with something, have a swivelling back end. inspired by my friends newly bought mini z, i was originally thinking of extending the chassis and putting a flexible peice inplace of the empty channle created when extending the chassis and then use a zip zap (if we ever get them here in Canada) shell to cover it up.

But i came up witha better idea. i would use an old chassis that has the end all chewed up and cut off the back end that holds the motor and gears in and make it flush. then i would take a bit racer back end and cut it flush. then take a small tubing on each side mounted perpendicular to the chassis. Placing a small pin in the tubing would connect the two halves and it would let the back end spin freely.

this would keep the tires on the ground at all times and it would reduce the amount of body roll created by the stablius bar's effect on the front tires, you know pushing one side down and let one go up. it theoritically would provide superior traction as the tires would never leave the ground and would stop the car from rolling over.

give me some thougths on this. I have exams coming up real soon, so this will have to wait...i finally use my old beat up bits as a testing ground. if this works, I can have a really really fast bit that handles well too.
