Posted October 12, 201212 yr With 1/2 this set comprising of Technic pieces I figure this was the best place to post. This build has stayed much the same as when I created it a few years back on a rainy Sunday afternoon. The good news is it's up on Cuusoo now. If you like the design then why not give it a vote. Working Dodgem Cars - Cuusoo
October 12, 201212 yr Second mode is a driftitng dodgem cars. Awesome MOC. I Like such non-typical MOCs and MOCers doing such work:)
October 12, 201212 yr Supported. These are really cute and, even better, it is a unique type of project. Was this on display at BrisBricks?
October 12, 201212 yr What an excellent use of parts. It's hard to tell how it really works until you open the lid.
October 12, 201212 yr Amazingly realistic.. even when one stops.. and another one 'bumps' it back into action! well done! Are you using standard lego magnets, or did you need to resort to rare-earth ones? RB
October 12, 201212 yr Very nice seen this done a few times, I did plan to do it myself but just got sidetracked lol. I want to try it with LEGO road
October 12, 201212 yr Author Was this on display at BrisBricks? Yes it was at BrisBricks, BrickExpo and Brickvention this year. Are you using standard lego magnets, or did you need to resort to rare-earth ones? Standard LEGO magnets like those used in the 9volt trains and also the SW star destroyer.
October 18, 201212 yr Author Fantastic, attaching magnets to a long looped chain is a great idea! It might be a little hard to tell but there is actually a 2nd chain underneath that distributes the load. So there is actually two drive points along the long chain with the magnets.
October 20, 201212 yr This is an excellent idea and well executed as well! I especially like how they always manage to get back on track after bumping into each other..
