Paul Boratko Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 (edited) Out of the dozens of cars that I have built over the years, this is my first F1 style car.. Pics HERE Functions include: 4 speed gearbox with paddle shifters on each side of the steering wheel Reverse-Neutral-Drive switch with Reverse being it's own separate gear and isn't influenced by shifting In car and Hand of God steering 4 Wheel independent suspension Fake V10 engine Opening engine cover Edited January 19, 2019 by Paul Boratko Quote
Bartybum Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 Ooohhh that’s pretty slick. I love how it’s got curves like a Bugatti despite being an open wheeler Quote
Meatman Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 Caught this on facebook late last night. It is a quite stunning model and looks very well designed. hopefully you have plans in the works, as I am intrigued as how you pulled some of this off. This model should also be able to be done in various colors with the Porsche or 42000 wheels. Quote
Aventador2004 Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 That is amazingly shaped. Looks like a Buggati F1 Quote
Tomik Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 This formula 1 looks pretty cool. I like its clean design. How many left over parts remained? Quote

grum64 Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 Excellent. Makes me want to buy another Chiron Quote
jorgeopesi Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 I like more than the Lego set, you have done great MOCs with this set. Quote
Akbalder Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 Nice ! If you create some instructions for this model, it would be another reason to buy the 42083 set. Quote
AFOLegofan66 Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 This is a very well put together F1...another reason to get another Bugatti Chiron set!! Quote
WvG_853 Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 My compliments as well. I had not expected to see a gearbox. I like your solution with the handles to up/down shift. Obviously also interested in instructions... Quote
Lox Lego Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 Really brilliant functions and design Paul! The F-N-R is in the perfect location and everything seems so well thought out. Love it! Quote
rener Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 Very impressive model, functions seem top-notch! I see a nostalgic analogy with 8880 and its B-model. Hope you can provide instructions for this one... Quote
Isamudyson Posted January 23, 2019 Posted January 23, 2019 This is a beautiful B model. Definitely wish Lego would put something out like this for these sets. Quote
Gzynek2323 Posted February 23, 2019 Posted February 23, 2019 Great Job. I would definitely buy instruction once available Quote
