I am guessing they will receive it very soon, this week or the week after

Sariel's review will be published June 2nd.

The perfect example of supply and demand. The demand increases (this popular moc uses 8), supply decreases, price increases. Same thing happened with #3 connectors years back.

It honestly looks like someone took a BuWizz and changed the Bluetooth into WiFi. Pretty sure this was already posted here too, and locked by the mods.

Use the ones from the Porsche/Claas. They should work perfectly.

Incredible moc and wonderful pictures! The WIP topic was a lot of fun to follow as well.

The wheel covers are from set 8653 Ferrari Enzo 1:10, and the wheels and tyres are from 42039. The ones from 8653 work too but they have 3 pin holes compared to the 6 pin hole variant this car has.

Maybe some context would help in this case...

Only with full batteries and even then it doesn't drive in 5th gear...

Seems a tad weird to release something on May 16th and reveal it on June 1st

May 16th is the Creator rollercoaster set.

Great progress! I do think you might have to make a compromise to get the bigger wheels. I think a slighly off fender will look better than completely wrong wheels. Maybe rigid hoses could be used instead of soft axles. They are thinner and thus can be closer to the wheel.

Great idea! I have a feeling the copy cats bother me way more than they bother you. I like the progress so far, I bet you can improve many areas with the new parts. By the way, I just started collecting parts your Ultimatum supercar .

Their title says "probably" if I translate it (through Google Translate...), and the article was written April 10th.

I thought that too, but they are brakes. If you look closely the liftarms on the side (top in the pic) are pulled in when the axle is rotated. The disc parts at the wheels are part of the brakes. A rubber connected the liftarms I mentioned (probably) has a rubber part which creates friction with the discs which acts as brake.

I am guessing they are going to works as brakes. I also see some pulleys at the wheels, which is the same thing my Sheepo cars with brakes have as well.

I think the diffusor should stay like this, but increase the length of the rear like @Leonardo da Bricki said.

It appears to work as some sort of catapult. Unless this isn't the parts Lasse was talking about.

I don't need to explain anything here.

The rear fenders are too high, and the windshield doesn't have the curves because it doesn't have a windshield. Both the front and the rear look too long as well. It appears to still look too high as well, but it's already miles better than before. There is a driving ring which is engaged when it's in RC mode. When shifting to manual mode, those driving rings disengage and you can steer and drive freely. Also there have to be at least 2; one for steering and one for driving.

Superb model, I am very curious how well LEGO's version will compare. To be honest you've raised the bars for a LEGO supercar. I was especially surprised by the modularity and it has to be my favourite function of all. I do like that it appears to drive smoothly in all gears as well. Too bad you won't be doing instructions for the full car. I love blue, I've got a lot of it myself, so I really hoped to be able to build it. Though maybe it's possible to reverse engineer it? Maybe very hard, considering how dense it is, but it's something I would be happy to take a shot at.

I do like McLarens a lot, but I was hoping to see some progress as LEGO model.

Awesome car!! It definitely screams Lamborghini to me. The all black one is the best in my opinion.

Awesome car! This will look fantastic on the shelf next to my Sheepo Mustang.

That is LEGO's name for dark bluish grey. Just like they have bright blue, bright yellow, and bright red, which are just blue yellow and red on Bricklink.
