Very nice, I like the design! It's also cool that you've managed to put in a working V6 while the model is quite small!

Thanks. The basic idea is taken from a set 9393 Buggy.

when i saw it first, i tought, "what is this thing doing in the technic forum, it's obviously system", but then, i saw the steering, the working v6 engine, and i tought, "WOW, OMG". good job on making this model having a clean look despite of all the function you put in! the way you made that working V6 engine also very interesting.

Gorgeous design. I really like the colour scheme and details. what part is used in the wheels?

Fantastic functions too! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

This detail is Rhotuka spinner, which was part of the Bionicle sets in 2005.

Hmm, that engine is very similar to the one I built into my upcoming small car (hopefully to be finished this weekend).

Doesn't it jam a bit? I had to restrict the pistons' movement range because of this, so that they don't fully "fall" on the main shaft. My pistons are only 2L long, maybe that's the difference.

Very nice, shape is clean and aerodynamic, functions are well thought out, and the rhotuka spinner wheels are brilliant! :thumbup:

Terrific design, very nice indeed.

Makes you want to take it to the track... Any plans for Lego hand controls?! ;-)
