I want 2 of those set (at minimum) so I have at last 4 of those wheels. I'm
thinking of making a car with four wheels. And it will have steering and
drive on all four wheels. Look at the ground clearing it will get since the
drive is not connected to the center of the wheel. :)
It will be a strange looking vehicle for sure....
Is this set a S@H set only? Or is it coming on the shelves soon?
(I'm living in Norway...)
