This must be the car with the worst weight distribution in existance. I dislike the engine placement. But I cant say it's bad looking car when the hood is closed

In a motorized model that might be good thing, but In a manual model with almost no friction i would rather have hard gears, because I can be sure they won't wear over time. There is no chance of them breaking anyways. I recently bought used old lbg gears on purpose, they feel much more solid and run way smoother than my also used tan ones. And without color vomit everything looks way better anyways

If you are going to 3D print anyways, you might as well make a muguard with integrated Shock ends as one piece.

[MOC] VAG BUG
Gray Gear replied to februar88's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Looks really cool! The only thing I dislike is how far the fake engine extends outside of the body, it looks kinda unnatural to me, but, what do I know? Not much about offroad vehicles, that's for sure -

[MOC] US Truck
Gray Gear replied to Lucio Switch's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I thought so, but I wasn't sure. I never really cared about Trucks. The tires used here are from the old Model Team Trucks, right? Those are even bigger than I expected. There is no way we are ever going so see even bigger ones. Well, a 1:8 carry truck would need a 35 studs interior width to fit my RX7 -
[MOC] US Truck
Gray Gear replied to Lucio Switch's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Wow, this is amazing! WhenI read it could carry a Porsche, my mind immidiately autocompleted that to 911 GT3 RS, and I thought you would have done it and built a Truck to carry 1:8 Cars. Of course it is already an amazing achievement to carry the 911 RSR, but I am still waiting for some absolute madman do drop a Truck to carry 1:8 Cars. But is that even possible? Are there wheels big enough for a truck like this? What wheels are you using here? Anyways, great creation, thanks for sharing -
My fake Rotary Engine with moving rotors: Instruction video showcasing how it works an how to build it. It might be a little cringe, I am not used to speak on camera I believe I am the first to develop a realisticly working Rotary engine small enaugh to fit into a 1:8 car, so feel free to call me Rotary Meister

@zuxOops I seem to have missed that part They must use pretty weak springs, so I doubt they will be of any use for me as a car guy

[MOC] Mercedes AMG GT

Are those wheels Model car wheels, or are they even 3D printed? -
[Moc] Datsun 240z
Gray Gear replied to LapisLazul's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Oh...this build does not look like it was built on a limited parts collection. If I need something for my MOCs, I buy it. You should definatelly invest in some more flex axles then -

Looks great, exept for the front wheel aches. They should have been done with flex axles as well -
Okay you got me, Alpine went under my radar. But Bugatti does not really count for me. If you like the really old cars, okay, but the EB110 and everything after it are just manufactured under a ressurrected badge, outside of france. And especially now Bugatti is about as french as Schnitzel. It is just a brand used by VW to flex
