(...) Nice one! How did you get the idea for this? It really is quite cunning - I am looking forward to seeing this applied in a model. Would I be right in saying that you could extend this to 8 wheel (or more) steering with the crab mode having all (...) (25 years ago, 26-Nov-00, to lugnet.technic)

Julien, (...) have (...) TLC have! The 8880 super car has 4 wheel drive, 4 wheel steer. (I think the 8448 also has 4 wheel drive? Someone correct me if I'm wrong!) They designed special parts for it though - I haven't seen a good implementation done (...) (25 years ago, 26-Nov-00, to lugnet.technic)
