WOW! It's an awesome tracktor. Wonder what type of steel the crankshaft and
the gearbox is made of if this was a real life beast?   :)


Well, let's see how monstrous is it: since the rider is a Technic fig, we
suppose it's 1:20, so each one of the 100 cylinders (0.6 cubic cms aprox)
will be 4800 cubic cms in the real world... multiplied by 100 cylinders it
is 480 liters!!!!!!!!!!!!  Where do you see such a BIG engine????

Well I've never heard of an enginge with 100 cylinders, but there are
enginges out there with that volume; in big boats. Like oiltankers.... But
they normaly only  have about 20 cylinders maximum.
