Why is the motor in the middle of the newer BIGFOOT trucks?
• Especially on long straight-line courses it helps the truck launch off the start line quicker. It also enables the engine to be placed lower in the chassis, thus lowering the center of gravity, which makes it better for cornering. In addition, with the engine in the middle, maintenance on the motor is simplified. It is much easier to change parts, and even the whole engine when it is placed in the middle.
