MOC Lego Rally Car
This set of the Lego racers series fascinated me because the base of the vehicle is remote controlled. After plying a while with the original I got bored and wanted to build something more realistic and interesting on top of the driving unit. Hence the base itself is quite thick the best thing I could come up with, was this rally car. The rally Dakar is an extreme event in the world of motor sport. I liked the old VW Tuareg which crossed the dunes rather successfully. Nevertheless, I wanted to include many or I dare say most of the parts from the original set. As I wanted to make a realistic car it really nice to see it been even driven by a more or less talented minifigure accompanied by his co-pilot who is navigating. :-) The two of them are taking up the challenge of the Lego Rally Dakar. The wheels are pretty small, therefore i changed the back ones for a bigger yellow pair. Unfortunately, the steering is often a bit too lash for a rally car. So its strengths are still on the tarmac. Focus when building was of course on stability while incoporating an aggressive, sportive line of Design. I am quite happy with the outcome of the front bumper, which is definitely one of the big characteristics of this unique car. If you have not already, let's have a look on the back of the car, where I packed very handy tools.
