I wish I had seen this 6 months ago
Earlier last year I strugled for months trying to come up with the body work style I was looking for- kind of like the maserati below. And then I
find the hotwheels model in a mag and online of the chevroletor. Too much work gone into mine now to change but If I do another I know what it will
be like.

it looks great till you get to the front where it starts to get crap, just look at the size of the intake, crazy

How on earth do you turn corners with it...does it use a skid steer system?

Enclosing the front wheel like that does limit the turning radius I will admit. On my early attempts of this I found I needed at least 3 or more
inches both infront and behind the wheel to allow for turning and bump. The notching at the top has to be bigger as well.
Anyone know how much turning degrees you can get out of a lotus 11 - it must be alot less than a seven.

Those photos remind me of the Thunder Car (same family as Legends Cars) that use the Yamaha xjr1300 engine in a front engined, rear wheel drive
format.
