I also plan to make an 11 wide supercar. Any idea when this will be finished? I always enjoy seeing your projects. |

I really like this chassis. It should be a great supercar. My only critique is that it seems a bit too wide for its length. Other than that, great job. I like the functiions. I am amazed that this many functions could be put into a car smaller than the 8081 Extreme Cruiser. I hope to make a supercar combo model of 8081 and 8069 some day. Should be hard though as neither of them have any driving rings. |

Hi great chassis. All necessary functions you needin a chassis in this compact way. I am impressed. Can you provide a more detailed picture of the steering I love the up-side-down approach? Again great MOC!! |
|

Thanks. I have to admit, motorization was exactly what I thought of :-)
But this won't keep me from upgrading my inventory with those sets and try my hand on your chassis.
Could the 'LT cardan ball' with the 'cardan cup with cross axle' be a possible solution for this problem as the 'LT cardan ball' allows axial movement (at least in my old 4x4 Offroader)? |

Quoting Peter Alraun
That's really a great Chassis, I'd buy it immediately.
I build a model of the live axle suspension (one of the most intelligent suspension systems with LEGO I've seen so far) with my limited possibilities and it works really smooth. Nevertheless I remarked that a lot of forces work on the driveshaft and with a rotated axis, there's a lot of compression on it too. Does this affect any parts?
Until there is a purchasable Version, can you suggest some sets which are required to build this model? I want to upgrade my collection reasonably
Yes, in full compression some forces will have influence on the drivetrain. However, I do not think it will affect any parts as long as you do not modify this design, like for example motorization.
Regarding sets, I suggest 8258 for the frames and lot's of other useful parts, and 9392 for the front suspension. This should get you far. |

Excellent, I've just got back into Lego Technic after many, many years away from it so I'm like a beginner again, this is a great starting point for people like me! |

Looks like a fantastic chassis, I've always wanted to build a nice Technic car, but the chassis always gives me trouble. The solutions you came up with are very clever, outstanding! |

This is so elegant! I love the radiator fan, something I've never seen in a Technic car before. |

Very good chassis! Nice work on the rear suspension and I like the scale. Most of the supercars are too big to play with and the chassis curves. This is a good design, because it's smaller, but it contains all the necessary functions! |

Finally a new technic moc from you !!!! I´ve been waiting for this.
Love the scale; nice challenge fitting all those functions in there.
Great job.
The rear suspension is AMAZING.....so creative...
Good luke on the body... I like the idea of a muscle car; or perhaps
a european classic ???.....anyway.....can't wait to see it !!!!! |

Wow, you've included some very cool Technic functions in this chassis! The rear axle construction is my favourite detail. You don't see many of those built with LEGO Technic. Great job, so far. Can't wait to see it as a base of a Muscle Car or a Hot Rod! :-)) |

This middy chassis is fully stocked with some very well suited functions for its size. Great job on the rear suspension set up. A mid sized muscle like the holden torana would look nice. Great entry. |

Good scaled downn model. I think chassis is perfect for old style muscle cars like Mustang, Pontiac etc. Are real suspension work smooth? |

The chassis looks very good. Solid build and nice functions. The front A arms aren't my favorite ones though. 5/5 |

Hi Nathanael, great too see you posting another technic supercar. The gearbox and transmission is fantastic. As mentioned below the suspension is great. I also really like the use of the ‘box section’ positioned vertically just behind the V8 engine – that must make it very strong. My only gripe with Lego’s supercar range is that they are just a little bit too big to easily play with (except the 8070). This looks like it is going to be very playable especially as it has the HOG steering (a must for my larger creator and technic cars). Can’t wait to see body work |

Aha I'd never thought of that for leaf springs, certainly much better than LEGO®'s attempt on the Unimog. |

Can you post some pictures of the rear suspension in detail, or give a bit more explanation, because, to me, it looks like it'll swing to lef/right :/ |

This is fanatsic work!. The proportions came out really well (such as the height of the engine, the width of the car), yet so full of technical goodies. Great job! |

Amazing work! One of the best looking functional chassis I've seen. I thought it was very clever how you connected the rear suspention springs. Maybe a you could build a Camaro Z28 on the top of this, the one that was in Transformers (the old style)? I think that would really suit this chassis :-) What ever you build I'm sure it will be great! |
