    Good job, Kronos! My"inside" and "bottom" photos showed suspension of S version. I'll make some photos of GT suspensio - it is a bit lower that S on my photos. Glad that you like it:)

    Today I added second Buggy motor to my Extreme cruiser GT, second V 2 receiver and second LiPo. I also used faster output of motor instead of slower (as in S and GT with one motor). Speed increased more than 1,5 times:))) good grip but no drift because of diff. Next I disassembled diff and make 20:20 gear at axle. It did not drifted again, but speed decreased while steering. Tire grip is very good - thats bad. Next I tried 12:20 gear at axle. Torque and acceleration increased, but that was not enough to drift rear wheels while steering. I also think that servo is too slow to destabilize the car while steering fast (power steering). Sad:( Tomorrow i will try to make wheels dirty - they will lose some grip. And if it will not work try last method - use adhesive tape on rear wheels (scotch)

    Barman, can you try to motorize it ?:)

    We want to save motorized winch and lights and also new colored details. So, Iam afraid, that price will be higher than 9398.
  9. rm8
    Where you find that price?

    Extreme cruiser S / GT spec My another modification of one of my favourites technic sets 8081, which I do recommend to every technic car-building beginner;) Real 4WD i have already made. You can watch it here http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=73762&hl=8081 Now it is time for make it low! Get low! Lets begin with S spec version EXTREME CRUISER S (sport) This is a street-legal version with RWD and civil tires 62.2x20. In comparison with original 8081 set it differs by: modified and lowered front independent suspension rear suspension live axle type, like on the 9398 crawler with torque tube and two stabilizing links. Live axle is normal for ford mustang, so it is not so wild, like it can seems. I think this type of suspension is most optimal and compact. Thanks for torque tube, TLG. shock absorbers was substituted to yellow hard version (from 8070). Front receives two independent absorbers instead of one soft. sport exhaust pipe with doubled mufflers sport aerodynamic bumpers with air intake holes. Side skirts also appeared. new front grill with. Number plate is disappeared. Such cars usually can be seen from the back;) spoiler on the third door street-legal tyres 62,2х20 Ground clearance is normal for city using. Ok, say "goodbuy" to this piece of .... It was developed for grandmas:)))) Moving to next version "GT spec". EXTREME CRUISER GT (gran turismo) As you can understand this version is more angrier than S, for real muchos, that know what GT means:) This model is mainly for track days, but of course, you can go for pancakes on it. it differs from S spec by next things: suspension is lowered 1 stid, at the same time its amplitude was decreased. It is really hard, my camera feel sick after driving on it. It can be more harder if you replace shock absorbers by 6L liftarms. widered wheel arches and side skirts (Wide-body), red line on bumpers; sport low profile tyres with wide wheels; larger spoiler for speeds 250+! GT still can be used as everyday car, cause drivers seat is here. No, you cant place your mama at passenger seat. Car also includes dashboard with turbine pressure indicator;) all doors are still openable. Sorry for many photos, but i like it. Ok lets move to serious things. Kids can go sleep, cause nothing interesting comes next. Front suspension Rear suspension: And this GT is with suspension from S spec with increased clearance. For "perfect" russian roads;) Evolution of 8081 *-foto from Kostya Bazdirev's review. Best 8081 review in my mind ОБЗОР Do you think it will stand on shelve? No way. Buggy motor is waiting to burn some rubber. IR v2 receiver, LiPo battery help them at this fun deal. Of course, servo will help us to prevent car wall crash at first 2 seconds of play;) Ok, those who no sleeping yet, my family video: Forget to say: no drift today. But second Buggy motor is waiting. dont forget about 4wd http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=73762&hl=8081 There is nothing new in this model, but it is fun and fast. I was bored reading 25 pages about coming sets. So relax:) and feel free to comment

    Shop.lego.de sells 9398 169 euro and 8110 199 euro. Hope 42009 will cost as Unimog... Monster truck is good offer. What is the PF tuning set? L motor, BB and some gears?

    So, Work is in process. I contact with particular designers and we discuss different variants and details: including color scheme, unique colors and unique details, stickers. Some details (i mean colors) will be produced specially for this set. We are google'ing for different real muscle cars to find more variants. I have already received photos of my model, built by TLG. Very unusual thing to receive your MOC photo from someone:) Yes, they improve my model, cause not all elements agree with TLG rules of building. But I hope we minimize this modification. It will be a limited collectors set;) we work hard, and for me it is a very cool experience!

    Looks like red moster truck uses the same suspension as crawler with Unimog's torque tube ball joints and 7L links for stablizing. Hole at this ball joints is used to steer wheels by HOG. There is no any fake engine and differentials here. It is like crawler for "poor" or for liitle boys who like to drive it by hand, not by remote controller:) This is just for my 3 year old son: He still cant understand my love for motorizing. Monster truck is first pretendent for motorizing. One XL or L will be enough for propulsion, small battery block for weight economy and servo/ m motor for steering right on the front axle.

    IMO 20 tooth bevel

    The same feeling. The biggest nightmare: sell at ebay auction contest winning crawler....to buy new sets
