Ho-lee crow!  Chrome comes to Space!  ;]  I gotta admit that's
one of the most "uniquest" things I've ever seen.  And even if
it is a little "over the top", that makes it all the more great!

Nothing like a little overkill to bring fun to the contest, eh?  Paul gave a
limit, so I figure I'd push it to its extremes.  It's akin to a podracer, or
one of those land speed record cars, where you have these ridiculously
enormous engines for one little pilot.  Plus, I finally found a groovy use
for those chrome wheel hubs.  That's always a plus.

Thanks. This was one of those models (like many of mine seem to be) where I
start with a single concept or strange piece and just build something from
there.  I started with those 6 hubs in certain configuration, and built the
chassis on top of it until it looked sufficiently comical/fearsome
(depending on your perspective).
