Ripsaw for Truck Trial competition

[9 fingers]

Hello LEGO fans.

Today i present you a tracked vehicle aka ripsaw build for our Slowenian truck trial race.

This was my nightmare on the race. A lot of good vehicels.

 

 

 

And this is my ripsaw.

 

 

 

The tracks are suspended, but i was not realy sold on this solution. I will improve this solution next time. But anyway thanks to mister Sariel for his free instructios of this setup.

 

There is one fake V 8 motor powered by one M motor direct to the Batery box. Yust for cool look.

 

 

 

 

 

This beast was powered by 2 XL motors, each for one track. Geared dovn 1:3.

 

 

And the video.

In this video you can see on the end, how fast it goes by switching the gears to gear ratio 1.7 :1

it realy is real fast, but very very weak.

 

 

 

 

thanx for watching.

Looks like a lot of fun! I really like the style of the cockpit with the flex axles! Also, is there a video of the trial event?

Very nice! Gearing? 1:3?

I think there is no video of the race. Only pictures on our forum Kocke klub.
