Jurgen Krooshoop Posted January 27, 2010 Author Posted January 27, 2010 very cool. reminds me of scuderia front, saleen s7 rear. i like how those doors open. i may have missed it but does it also have working suspension? No, it doesn't have working suspension, but I included dummy shock-absorbers because they look cool. Suspension can be made in this scale, but I specifically chose not to include suspension so I could make lower ground-clearance and tighter mudguards, wich also looks cool. See my MOC-page for more explanation. Quote
Ras_Al_Ghul Posted January 27, 2010 Posted January 27, 2010 that's awesome, dude! I wish I had the parts to build my own. One question: what program did you use to make the animation of the drivetrain? Quote
deAraujo Posted January 27, 2010 Posted January 27, 2010 Very impressive!! It has great aesthetics (solid build) and goes fast!! Those weels are so awesome! Keep it up! Quote

sverre Posted January 28, 2010 Posted January 28, 2010 Looks really great! Wish I had your skills. I like the super low ride height, and the engine look impressive as well. Quote
Sergiu Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 Very nice MOC. The design is interesting and well done. I like very much the fact that the car drives so well and that the drivetrain is reliable. Good job! Quote
Blakbird Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 This is really, really lovely. It is a great example of just how smooth and accurate you can make a model look with Technic. The fact that it is also completely functional is remarkable. A beautiful model and a great piece of design work. My favorite part is that you used the low profile wheels from 8428 that almost no one uses. Quote
Big Cam Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 OMG, that's awesoem, it really looks like a Diablo to me. Kudos on the design, it looks soo good! Quote
Toa_Of_Justice Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 That's a fantastic model! I wish that LEGO would release an RC car very much like what you built, Jurgen Krooshoop! -Toa Of Justice P.S. Unfortunately, the Brickshelf link is broken--here is the correct page. Quote
dr_spock Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 Very nice model. Good work on the low ground clearance and lack of gap between the wheels and fenders. Quote

Yes, I like those wheel very much as well, I got them with my 8462-set. I'm playing with the idea of making a small series of different cars using these wheels. But in the meantime, I'm working on an MLCad file of this model, so I can put instructions on my Brickshelf. Edited January 29, 2010 by Jurgen Krooshoop Quote
grepin Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 This is a very good looking model, no doubts about that - and the wheels help a lot, good choice! I'm looking forward to see what else you'll come up with using those wheels Quote

DLuders Posted February 13, 2010 Posted February 13, 2010 The instructions are ready. You can download them for free from my brickshelf-folder. Wow! What an expert job in creating the building instructions & parts list! Thanks, Jurgen! You're a mult-talented man (creating the car and the YouTube video's MUSIC too)! This car has all the features a Technic fan would want -- Power Functions driveability, lights, working engine and steering wheel. This is easily the coolest Sportscar MOC I've seen, so I'm gathering needed parts to build it! Quote
JunkstyleGio Posted February 13, 2010 Posted February 13, 2010 I am in total awe! Fantastic model, great instructions, thanks for sharing! Quote
Tobbe Arnesson Posted February 16, 2010 Posted February 16, 2010 Wow, now that was a great first post! :D Very good playability, well made. It looks really well to! Personally I think the hood is a tad to flat, the three middle beams should be slightly tilted up in the back to give it some more curves. Well done to get all that function in such a small and good looking package! Quote
