I like your idea, and I think your celebrity endorsement plan is a great way to get publicity. By just making a single prototype and brining it to car shows, all you're doing is exposing that single car, but by marketing it to sell, you're effectively creating a market for your product.
It definitely looks like you know what you're doing. My advice for down the road would be to look at redesigning the chassis with a simpler and easier to construct design. You may even want to look at a carbon fiber monocoque design. The race team I'm a member of is using a monocoque chassis for our mini-forumula with G10 inserts for the suspention and engine attachments, and we've found it works quite well.
One concern of mine is from the 3-wheeled design. I'm interested in seeing what kind of lateral forces it can withstand before rolling.
I'm looking forward to hearing the specs of the completed prototype! (Obviously, you can't get all the data Frank was asking for until you actually have it running.)
