Don,

Nothing to see with the old mantis !!! Great job Don, as usual... If that beast really hits the market, I may get an XR promptly "thumbsup"
Hope to see that soon on the rocks on a YT vid...;-)

Any ballpark figure for how much this will run?

JUST WICKED :shock: !

Nice work, never had an original Mantis but a buddy does and I always wanted one. I noticed there's very little triangulation in the rear links, does that hurt the handling or is it not necessary on a torsion chassis? I've only ever ran 4 linked rigs but if this goes into production I'll definitely take one.

Ship a prototype up here to Canada and we can test it out in a "Ted's garage" video. I know, slim chance but still worth a shot. :mrgreen:
