As I remember Chiron had a "key" for that purpose... -
[TC27] Telehandler
1gor replied to CK28's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Good start; but as someone who has lots of headachse with boom on my telehandler project, it seems that axles are a bit to wide; perhaps 11 studs flip-flop beam could be very usefull for you -
Actually Jerry I don't like shapes of modern cars at all; and they are difficult to represent with Lego, but somehow you always managed to nail the shape. That is actually my honest opinion.

You know it is exactly ugly as original, so you defenetly made great representation of it. Performance is impressive as it is the case with other models thay you developed.

[WIP] Ferrari 125s in 1:8 scale
1gor replied to Divitis's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Perhaps new engine peaces (from Kawasaki) would be useful to you... To represent classic Ferrari in 1:8 scale with those (big) cylinders, you had to choose 625 Targa Florio, or 500TRC -
42172 - McLaren P1
1gor replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Well, since we have a topic dealing with second Ferrari (125s) it would be a real challelenge for Lego designers to make type 101 out of panels since you can look at discussion as "why doesn't Lego make some model that is often in media or evrn more iconic in technic line". The real contrast would be to make as accurate as possible model out of Lego that represents something that is made of pure metal...and btw there is probably a good reason why model that I mentioned is often called "the last true Bugatti". -

1gor replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
If real car is in question, then my (Bugatti) choice is Type 101 van Anthen coupe...so no composite materials or plastic (except in Lego) for me -

1gor replied to Milan's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I can hardly wait...there are few questions that only final official product can answer... so not far away... Thank you -
Front part of hood is to flat for my taste and to flat in comparisson to modern tractors that I saw IRL. Looking forward since I get constantly distracted from building...

[WIP] Ferrari 125s in 1:8 scale

Yes, he constructed small block engines and Aurelio Lampredi made big block engines (usually for La Carrera PanAmericana) -

1gor replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Yes, it tured from green to yellow in shrinked itself Anyway all those series of 1:8 cars are for display, so except suspension, transmission, steering, key is actiually to replicate the look as good as possible -
[WIP] Ferrari 125s in 1:8 scale
1gor replied to Divitis's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
The only real problem in my eyes is how to replicate elegant lines of this Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera barchetta bodywork. (Front radiator grille is relativelly simple - very boxy solution in comparisson to later Touring and specially Vignale masterpieces) -
