Very interesting. thanks for the link . the white roadster with the
tall wheels is like a design I hope to build soon. your's looks
pretty sharp!

Thanks!  As a matter of fact, I'm looking into making an updated version
of the white classical racer right now.  The new version will be a
little bit bigger and have an inline 6 piston engine rather than 4.
Otherwise it will basically have the same functions.

The white classical racer was one of the very first full featured
vehicles I made after my dark ages.  With one more year of experience, I
think this is the time to look into upgrading it.

In fact, making a racer like this was my goal as a child as well.  I had
a scale model of the Bugatti T-35 which I tried to copy.  I never
actually managed to make something proper, though.  When I saw the 8422
"Circuit Shock Racer" one year ago, I realized that the wheels were
perfect for a car like that and rushed out and got three of them, to be
sure to have enough.

If I can find the time, I'll probably model the new racer in LDraw.

(...) have a "moving" counter weight, having been designed for the weight of the cam and nothing more. The idea of the mobile Counterweight is to be able to move it so you can use the torque(?) provided by the weight in different ways, further out (...) (25 years ago, 6-Mar-99, to lugnet.build)
