(...) It's nice to know that the new parts are there, but so far I have no plans for an Ldraw model. It would take me quite some time, especially with all those weird angles that you get in many Technic models. Nate (16 years ago, 29-Sep-08, to lugnet.build, lugnet.technic)

Fabulous work!!! From the bottom I see two driving rings near the front and rear differentials. These are used to tweak the motor assemble position and the front/rear drive options. Correct!?
