Do you intend to do tuft testing at some point? How much work would it take to get the drivetrain up and working? Three wheel layouts need to have careful engineering of the Cg, and the handling can be great, but they can also be problematic. Getting actual data on fuel economy and/or video of tuft tests would go a long way toward promoting your design.
