The link does not work

[mihao]

Just fixed the link. Permission issue previously.

Link works. Owning subj in Asphalt 9  

Thanks fir the instruction! Any chance of a partlist?

[Jeroen Ottens]

That is one cool looking car! Very dense chassis, reminds me of Madoca style chassis. And very nice lines for this scale

Did you build it in real life as well?

Did you experiment with flexaxles in the wheelarches?

And welcome to Eurobricks!

Holy wow! I think I'm going to build this.

Yes, I have my own build in real life to verify everything is working. I like building car in this scale, anything bigger with full body seems to have some difficulty when being driven by 2 L-motors.   

[Lox Lego]

Wow that’s wonderful. Full instructions as well?!? Great compact design 

[Lipko]

I like the chassis very much, especially how the motors serve as the main part of the chassis.

Make me want to build something in this scale

[AFOLegofan66]

Wow fantastic...I'm for sure going to build this...nice instructions!!

[BrickbyBrickTechnic]

This car is excellently well done! I really like how you avoided soft axles and got such a nice shaping with only panels. Not all that common in supercars these days.

[1963maniac]

This is a MOC with a lot of functions! Nice use of Stud.io! Maybe next time you could use a part outline color that is not used, such as orange or bright green.

[WvG_853]

Great creation! Thank you very much for the instructions!

[Doomer]

Brilliant Build

Brilliant Instructions

[KD123]

Love the shaping!  Well done.  This thing is going to look puny compared to my other supercars but excellent styling nevertheless. Such detail on such a small car.  Quality work.  Thank you for the instructions. Wow!

[Jurss]

Like it. Thank You for FREE instructions!

[brunojj1]

Great model and even better instructions ! Not sure about the wheelhouses too, it doesn´t hurt to try flex axles IMO.

[mihao]

I don't think flex axle can help. The front wheel arch of Aston Martin Vulcan is actually constructed partially by the hood. When the hood opens, the arch splits (as below.) This is what I achieved in the current design. Makes sense?

Good point! Will use a different color next time. Thanks for pointing it out.

Cool car, I like it. Lot of functions, and the only thing I would change is the wheel arches to use flex axles.

It seems several 1:12 scaled moc revealed recently, and I'm also working on one.

[jorgeopesi]

Too much dense for my taste but I like the scale and it is 100% Lego so a fantastic car no doubt.

[muffinbrick]

I've seen it on rebricable. It looks realy great, maybe i try to build one. Thanks for sharing instructions

Pls show me your idea how flex axle is fit here if you get a chance, and looking forward to seeing your stuff coming out. Cheers.

Wow this looks great. I love the front end  

The instructions however have a lot of very difficult steps. Now I am all for a challenge, that’s the whole reason why I almost never buy sets, but you have entire assemblies built in one step whereas the other side had actual steps. Would it be a problem for you to send me the .io file? I’d love to have a look at it on my PC, perhaps making some easier-to-use steps.
