an overall picture



pinion will attach to outdrive and will spin the tire and NOT the chain

now i just need to cut a steel plate for the tranny and weld it to the frame

and buy another pinion and grind it a little to stop it from chewing up the tire

still awaiting on 3s 5000mah 30c flightmax lipos to arrivee

Yup!!.. unless you're already moving.. then it might not... If you want to do something like that, buy an outrunner motor with the 12mm shaft..

haha. yah. im gonna have to grind the pinion a bit. just enough so theres still some traction against the tire but not too much as to shred my tire. haha. ah. im gonna give it a rolling start then power the esc

I would use some sort of rubber wheel instead of the pinion idea... Not sure where you can get that sort of thing with a set screw but I am sure it exists...
