I just received my 8041 in the mail yesterday and have now built both models for it. I've never really done a review or anything, but I must say that this was a pretty good model actually. The main model of the race truck looks nice enough and the cab tilting is a nice feature. The parts of note were a differential and some body panels that I haven't seen at least. I know there was talk on a different post about this one having instructions for inserting power functions but that isn't the case. While it could be done fairly easily there are no instructions to do it. I'm actually more excited about the b model race car. Having just come back to lego recently I didn't really have a technic car or the parts to build one. This car looks beautiful when completed. It has a really low roof and reminds me of the new Dodge Charger. The V8 is up front with a long driveshaft to the back making it a rear wheel drive. I have never liked putting the stickers on lego, but this is the closet I have ever come to doing so. With the large body panels and actually really well designed stickers it would really look good with them on. I tried finding my camera last night, but no look so I will post up pics when I find it.
I would have to give this model an 8/10
