Use anything you want really, turn it up side down & it will go forward.

You probably should see the front end in my liner Mike, it's up side down & so is the steering box. :-D & no down under jokes alright! :wink:

those drawings almost look like rear wheel steer was the plan....Now I`m afraid.....

Don't think rear wheel steering is allowed.

There was a yellow roadster some years ago that caught my eye as I walked by it that made me take a second look. It had a 9" in the front & a twin I-beam in the back with steering. I asked the guy how it drove & he said not bad!
Thrust SSC was rear steer too, but it only went 763. :roll:
But I think Glen is right.

At the Salt Talks a few years ago, I asked Andy Green how he got used to rear steering on Thrust SSC, he said he never did get use to it!

At Bonneville you just go straight. Right? Who needs steering?

I also don't see an engine in the drawing.  Guess this thing is powered by hopes and dreams without steering.

Looks like they were planning on a quick change axle.  The center of the diff is not lined up with the center of the axle.   Not sure how that would work.
