Woah! That took some time and dedication.
derby a licious.. I think this is the 3rd or 4th time.
This build is what inspired Neuf Un Six to do his models.

Oops...oh well, i guess i was bound to do this at some point
Wow! [clap]
I hadn't seen this yet - pretty fantastic work.

I liked the chain kit. :o
Fantastic job. [thumbsup]
I'd go postal before I got half the chain done.
lm got me the D'ANTIN PRAMAC modle for Christmas
when I'm done with it.... it'll look like I let Spidey ride it [laugh] (parts hang'n off and shit)
Wow, that build is amazing.....and kind of scary....
This is par for the course for some model builders. The Japanese seems especially hard core. There's a huge model industry over there - fantastically detailed and complex kits, and as you've seen aftermarket stuff to make them more complex and detailed. The Tamiaya expert kits run in the hundreds of dollars and (as you see) could pass for real when done right.
In Japan there's a number of huge magazine devoted to models - you can find them in the states some places... holy crap man. A 300 page mag packed with builds just like that one.
The model is is Japanese (Tamiya) but the builder and the website is actually Chinese (from Taiwan). Not that it makes a difference. Amazing, nevertheless.
Amazing work! I wouldn't even have the patience to take the pictures and post them let alone actually build it.
omg, that chain building part is just silly... that is insane... that is what separates the dedicated to those that will never attempt that..
that's just nuttts [clap]
Amazing - that little girl did a really great job. I didn't think a three-year old would have even been capable of that!
Damn yo!... that is a lot of work... it even has the rear camera and... the chain build... wow

Man, I need a nap now.
My self-worth just decreased by a factor of 10.
:o wow...truly impressive, that chain is mind boggling. I've got a 1/12 Tamiya Caterham that i've yet to get started on, this inspires me and scares me at the same time!
And they have some nutty emoticons over there!
That was unbelievable. I've searched for an S4RS model but have yet to find anything
Very cool but time consuming. awesomeness [thumbsup]
i want a time-lapse of that deal!
