This is my entry for this month's Studio activity "Build it. Race it." The rules of the activity required taking one of the prebuilt chassis and building a racing vehicle using only pieces from a limited palette. One of the chassis looked like it could be used to built something like a chariot. and that's what I did:

The chariot is drawn by two fully brick-built custom motorcycles. The idea for the gradient "wings" came up very early in the design process, so the motorcycles were built to include this feature, too. Initially, I struggled to include enough connection points for the sides but then I remembered about 4595, and this is when everything clicked into place.

This was really fun – even though I ended up submitting my design in the last hour, the deadline was what motivated me to keep building. Of course I would love to win, but there are some amazing entries, including in my category (one winner will be selected for each of the prebuilt chassis), so I don't hold my breath.

Anyway, I'll share the link to the .io file when the design gets approved. I'm also planning to make the instructions, so I'll share them as well when they're ready.
