Redd was our third iteration four-wheel drive car, with a slightly larger frame to encompass the new larger Kohler engine. Alongside the larger frame, we decided to change the packaging of the front hubs and move to a different rear suspension setup, opting for a semi-trailing arm and toe links instead of the loaded driveshafts and H-arm setup previously used. This new setup provided great success at competition, with no issues relating to the suspension with great maneuverability to accompany.
