Fort Belknap, located near Newcastle, Texas in northwestern Young County, was established in 1851 by brevet Brigadier General William G. Belknap. The fort was created to provide settlers of the American expansion movement protection from Comanche and Kiowa raids. It was the northernmost fort in a line from the Rio Grande to the Red River. The fort functioned as a base of operations rather than as a fortified point, and it became the center of a substantial network of roads, including the Butterfield Overland Mail. The site was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1966, after having been designated a National Historic Landmark in 1960.

 

Prior to the outbreak of the American Civil War, the post was abandoned, partly as a pullback of federal troops to the north, and partly due to the fort's unreliable water supply.

 

The fort was gradually dismantled for building materials, so that by 1936, only the magazine and part of the corn house remained. Beginning with the Texas Centennial, portions of the fort were rebuilt and restored, mostly on their original foundations. Starting in 2019, the fort underwent a renovation to update the museum housed in the commissary building and build a new support structure for the historic grape arbor.

 

The fort is home to the Fort Belknap Archives, which houses records from North Texas.

What an Awesome Batmobile. "Me wants me some"

"How do I build it?"

Pullback Motor Drag Racers (Not built by me & in no particular order)

A Russian convoy is seen parked on the side of the road August 20, 2008 on the main Gori-Tbilisi highway, near Igoeti, Georgia. The Russian government announced a troop pullback by this weekend, though little significant withdrawal was visible on the ground in Georgia.

It's not that big because it's a screencap, but you can still see the details and bricks that comprise the build.

Notable pieces include:

black 3-long wing pieces underneath the pullback motor unit,

a tooth piece, which is something I've never thought before in my 2014 F1 MOC,

and bow piece (LEGO part code 11291)

 

In another screencap I'll show the back, which I found both intriguing and brilliant at the same time.

 

Promo starts in Singapore for S$60 a pump with extra S$6 to get the polybag.

The rest of you? You have to wait.

Auf einem Flohmarkt habe ich ein Set 9092 entdeckt, es ausgeschlachtet und neu aufgebaut ... wurde ein richtig niedlicher Flitzer, mit Pullback Motor :-)

I got the barge boards down! I am quite proud of my solution, although admittedly it does leave the lamp holder part exposed.

 

The biggest point of contention I have here (that isn't the front wing) are the sidepods. When I went for the SNOT solution I got the shape correct and ideal, but I lose the vertical shaping that is supposed to add the bulk to protect the driver. Now, I went to build the car with the nifty pullback chassis in the Shell-Ferrari sets, and while I get the vertical shaping, I lose the horizontal shaping (the size-zero body), and real car's sidepods come out from the monocoque sideways.

 

So do I stick with this frankly-antiquated solution that does its job or do I ditch the powered chassis for a horizontal build?

 

BTW: do you like my rear wings?

Oh, why is she dressed as a shrimp nigiri and why is it on wheels?? And then why do those wheels have pullback action? This is by far the greatest cell phone charm I've ever owned.

 

My friends bought this for me at the Japan section of Epcot Center in Disneyworld :)

This race car is my first alternative model built out of set 42106. I built it for TC18 Contest organized by eurobricks. It features pullback motor, steering and easily detachable body. Building instructions will be available at www.buildinst.cz/en soon.

RMZ City are a pretty new diecast brand owned by Uni-Fortune Toys and are very slowly making their presence felt in various countries. Their products are largely but not exclusively 1/64 scale and have a very good and simple tier of different quality. All their castings are licensed and can be had in various different flavours;

Semi-premium with pullback motors

Semi-premium without pullback motors

Basic budget sold under the Junior Collection sub series.

Its the more basic line you are probably likely to encounter especially here in the U.K. where various smaller retailers have them out on the pegs as a much welcome alternative to all those generic HTI's! The actual castings are the same regardless of trim level with the obvious decontenting here of interiors, body detailing and cheaper wheels.

For a cheapie this Mercedes-Benz E 63 AMG certainly hits the spot with an accurate crisp casting and a smattering of painted lights and grille. Certainly no Matchbox but more of a Maisto alternative. Bought recently from the Irish EuroGiant chain. Mint and boxed.

My love affair with the cheapo and obscure side of diecast collecting started before I was a teenager! Back then you could find all sorts of interesting Far Eastern produced stuff nearly everywhere but now, even though the UK is saturated with discount shops, the choice available is very limited to usually HTI generics or products so poor even I wouldn't touch them. My cheapo Chinese fixes these days either come from AliExpress or the Chinese bazaars of Spain so I was surprised to find a set of decent looking diecasts in a Super Pound Store recently.

All including this Zenvo ST1 are made entirely of plastic but are surprisingly well cast and ride on sensible looking wheels. Its lack of interior hides a pullback motor. Part of an eight vehicle BDR Toys branded set. Mint and boxed.

I made my own motor since no Lego pullbacks comfortably fit my chassis style. Check the video to see it run.

 

The green bar holds two tiny gears, which engage with the larger gear when the axle moves backwards. (The large gear winds up the elastic). When pressure stops being applied, so the engine has run out of juice, the bar lifts a little and the car freewheels.

Harley-Davidson VRSC

 

The Harley-Davidson VRSC V-Twin Racing Street Custom family of cruiser motorcycles was introduced in 2001 in a single model called the V-Rod. The V-Rod was developed by Harley-Davidson to compete against Japanese and American muscle bikes. The "V-Rod" made use of the Revolution engine, developed jointly with Porsche that, for the first time in Harley public production history, features overhead cams and liquid cooling. The V-Rod is visually distinct from other Harley-Davidson motorcycles. It can be easily identified by the 60-degree V-twin engine, the radiator and the hydroformed frame members that support the round-topped air cleaner cover. A distinct difference between the V-Rod and all other Harley production motorcycles is the location of the fuel tank. The fuel tank on the V-Rod is located underneath the seat, placing the driver on top of it, rather than the usual frontal placement. The "tank" in this case is simple dressing, hiding the frame. Loosely based on the VR-1000 superbike, it continues to be a platform around which Harley-Davidson builds drag-racing competition machines. All VRSC models are produced at Harley-Davidson's Vehicle and Powertrain Operations facility in Blue Springs- Kansas City, Missouri.

VRSC Models

VRSCA V-Rod Model years: 2002–2006. This was the original V-Rod. The first V-Rod was equipped with the 1,130 cubic centimeters (69 cu in) Revolution Engine, producing a claimed 115 horsepower (86 kW) at the crank. The V-Rod featured 49 mm forks and a 180 mm rear tire, with solid disc wheels. The VRSCAs were all factory equipped with 3.7 US gallons (14 l; 3.1 imp gal) fuel tanks. In 2006 the VRSCA was equipped with Brembo Brakes. The VRSCA was only offered with forward controls.

VRSCAW V-Rod

Model years: 2007–2010. The VRSCAW V-Rod is the successor to the VRSCA. First Produced in 2007, it is essentially a VRSCA with a new frame to accommodate the 240 mm rear tire and five gallon gas tank that came standard. The aluminum bodywork of the VRSCA only made it onto a few early-production VRSCAW models, but was quickly dropped. With these changes the VRSCAW is a claimed 37 pounds (17 kg) heavier than its predecessor. For the first production year the power-plant remained an unchanged 1,130 cubic centimeters (69 cu in) Revolution engine. The VRSCAW is only offered with forward controls. The combination of increased weight and a 240 mm rear tire with no power increase made the 2007 VRSCAW the slowest production VSRC produced

   

In 2008 the VRSCAW V-Rod's Revolution was boosted from 1,130 cc to 1,250 cubic centimeters (76 cu in), producing a claimed 84 pound force-feet (114 N•m) @ 7,000 rpm, and peak power of 123 horsepower (92 kW) at the crankshaft, a slipper-clutch was also added, as was an ABS option. For the 2009 model year the VRSCAW replaced the VRSCD, which was dropped from the line, as the "base model" for the VRSC family, as such the MSRP was dropped almost US$2,000 to $14,999.

VRSCB V-Rod

Model years: 2004–2005. The VRSCB V-Rod had limited two year run. It was mechanically identical to the VRSCA, the cosmetic differences included a black frame, polished aluminum and black powder-coated engine, and a slightly different clamshell, instrument housing and handlebars. The VRSCB was only offered with forward controls.

VRSCD Night Rod

Model years: 2006–2008. The Night Rod was introduced in 2006 as the “new hot rod-inspired motorcycle” built around the Revolution engine. The Night Rod featured Mid-mount controls, supplemented by highway-pegs. Straight-shot mufflers helped the Revolution Engine to produce a claimed 120 horsepower (89 kW) at the crank. The Night Rod featured a black frame, black and chrome engine, Brembo Brakes, slotted aluminum disk wheels, and a color-matched fairing.

In 2008 the VRSCD Night Rod's Revolution was boosted from 1,130 to 1,250 cubic centimeters (69 to 76 cu in), producing a claimed 85 pound force-feet (115 N•m) @ 7,000 rpm, and peak power of 125 horsepower (93 kW) at the crank, a slipper-clutch was also added, as was an ABS option. For the 2008 model year, the VRSCD was the only remaining VRSC model to still feature a 180 mm rear tire or mid-pegs. 2008 would also be the final year of production for the VRSCD Night Rod.

VRSCDX Night Rod Special

Model years: 2007–Present. The VRSCDX is marketed as the factory made custom version of the standard Night Rod and is also part of Harley-Davidson's "Dark Custom" series. In addition to a 240 mm wide rear tire, most of the chrome components of the VRSCD were replaced with black. The wheels were replaced by black slotted disk wheels, with dark orange pin striping. The Straight shot dual exhaust produced a claimed 120 horsepower (89 kW) at the crank. A 5 gallon tank was standard. The DX also features prominent racing stripes. In 2008 the VRSCDX Night Rod Special's Revolution was boosted from 1,130 to 1,250 cubic centimeters (69 to 76 cu in), producing claimed torque of 85 pound force-feet (115 N•m) @ 7,000 rpm, and peak power of 125 horsepower (93 kW) at the crank, a slipper-clutch was also added, as was an ABS option. For the 2012 model year, Harley-Davidson launched a tenth anniversary version of the Night Rod Special. Key features include a straight-shot exhaust with dual, chrome slash-cut mufflers and chrome exhaust shield; split five-spoke cast aluminum wheels with diamond cut highlights; pullback handlebar with polished finish; inverted front forks in silver and polished finishes; stylized, chrome speed screen visor; graphics, including V-Rod 10th anniversary emblem; and chrome powertrain with platinum crankcase and heads.

 

VRSCF V-Rod Muscle

Model years: 2009–Present. The V-Rod Muscle was introduced in the summer of 2008 at the Harley-Davidson dealer show in Las Vegas for the 2009 production model year. In promoting the Muscle, Harley partnered with American fashion model Marisa Miller for an advertising campaign aimed at younger, urban riders. It would be one of only three VRSC models for 2009. Like the other two models, the Muscle features the 1,250 cubic centimeters (76 cu in) Revolution Engine, a 240 mm wide rear tire, 5 US gallons (19 l; 4.2 imp gal) fuel tank, slipper clutch and forward controls. Departing from the other models in the VRSC lineup, the Muscle features straight shot dual exhausts, with a crossover, one on each side of the bike. This is a significant stylistic departure from the 2>1>2 exhaust found on all other VRSC models. Additionally, the Muscle features a unique air-box with mock-up air-rams like those found on many American pony and muscle cars. Early rumors around the VRSCF speculated that the F might stand for Forced Induction, however, in the production version of the bike the air-rams are purely cosmetic. There is no official word from Harley-Davidson as to what, if anything, the F in the VRSCF designation stands for. The VRSCF also features a chopped rear fender with integrated turn signals, and a side-mounted license plate. As well as turn signals integrated into the rear-view mirrors; a first as a stock feature on a Harley-Davidson motorcycle. The VRSCF puts out at the crank a claimed 86 pound force-feet (117 N•m) of torque at 6,500 rpm, which is slightly more torque than the other VRSC models, at a slightly lower engine speeds. Claimed peak crank horsepower is down slightly from the Night Rod Special, at 122 horsepower (91 kW) at 500 rpm lower engine speed.

VRSCSE: Screamin' Eagle CVO V-Rod

Model years: 2005. In 2005 Harley Davidson's Custom Vehicle Operations produced their first V-Rod. The dimensions were identical to the VRSCA at the time, but the VRSCSE featured extra chrome, custom paint, and not the typical "clamshell" found on other VRSC models. Mechanically the VRSCSE was boosted by a 1,250 cc Revolution Engine, with CNC ported heads.

VRSCSE2: Screamin' Eagle CVO V-Rod

Model years: 2006. The VRSCSE2 was the first V-Rod or VRSC model to feature a 240 mm rear tire. It also featured the Screamin' Eagle 1,250 cc Revolution Engine.

VRSCR: Street Rod

Model years: 2006–2007. The Street Rod was marketed as the “roadster-inspired” member of the VRSC line. The Street Rod was the first VRSC to ever feature inverted forks made by Showa, with a steep rake and Brembo supplied brakes. It also featured the highest seat height at 30 inches (76 cm) of any VRSC model. The Street Rod also claimed the greatest lean angle at 40°, over the 32° lean of the other VRSC models. The Street Rod came equipped solely with mid-mounted controls. The Street Rod would be the first to feature the 5 gallon tank in the 2006 year model that would become standard for the line in 2007.

 

VRSCX: V-Rod

Model years: 2007. Harley Davidson put out the VRSCX as a Screamin' Eagle Tribute bike in honor of the Harley V-Rod's second consecutive NHRA Championship. The VRSCX had the same dimensions as the 2007 VRSCAW, featuring the 240 mm rear tire, 5 gallon gas tank, and forward controls. However, the VRSCX also featured a tribute paint job reminiscent of the pro stock V-Rod, a smoked drag-visor windshield, as well as the 1,250 cc Screamin' Eagle Revolution Engine.

VRXSE: V-Rod "Destroyer"

In 2007 Harley Davidson Introduced a non-street legal, out of the box drag bike nicknamed the Destroyer. With ET's of 8 to 10 seconds with a decent rider, this bike came with the same engines as others in its family, with the exception of a long stroke flywheel, over-sized valves, dyno tuned velocity stacks, large bore high compression forged pistons, high lift cams, multi stage lock-up clutch, programmable shift light, pneumatic shifter, larger throttle bodies, and much more race equipment.

The Revolution engine

The Revolution engine is based on the VR-1000 Superbike race program, developed by Harley-Davidson's Powertrain Engineering team. It is a liquid-cooled, dual-overhead-cam, internally counterbalanced 60 degree V-twin engine with a displacement of 69 cubic inches (1,130 cc), producing 115 horsepower (86 kW) at 8,250 rpm at the crank, with a redline of 9,000 rpm. It was introduced for the new V-Rod line in 2001 for the 2002 model year, starting with the single VRSCA (V-Twin Racing Street Custom) model.

A 1,250 cc Screamin' Eagle version of the Revolution engine was made available for 2005, and was present thereafter in a single production model from 2005 to 2007. In 2008, the 1,250 cc Revolution Engine became standard for the entire VRSC line. Harley-Davidson claims 123 horsepower (92 kW) at the crank for the 2008 VRSCAW model. The VRXSE Destroyer is equipped with a stroker (75 mm crank) Screamin’ Eagle 1,300 cubic centimeters (79 cu in) Revolution Engine, producing over 165 horsepower (123 kW).

This is the weapon of joice of real experts at Sci-Fi combat. You don't need to carry much with you. You need ammunition and the strenght to turn this little wheel to load the battery of this great wepon.

So, you think about why real experts should use a Sci-Fi-Mini-Minigun if they can take their laser weapons.

First of all:

This weapon needs just ammunition and your strenght, no batterys that could run out of energy and would have to be reloaded at a power station.

Secondly:

If you want to free hostages and/or you don't want to destroy special things laying around like secret information, you take this weapon. You just need some tiny needles as ammunition (can also be just narcotic) and then you can storm the room without much destruction.

All these resons speak for the Sci-Fi-Mini-Minigun, so, make sure also your warriors get some of them !

  

This is my entry for the Motorized Sci-fi Contest, non electrical category, I used one of these pullback motors lego cars use.

The dimensions were identical to the VRSCA at the time, but the VRSCSE featured extra chrome, custom paint, and not the typical "clamshell" found on other VRSC models. Mechanically the VRSCSE was boosted by a 1,250 cc Revolution Engine, with CNC ported heads.

VRSCSE2: Screamin' Eagle CVO V-Rod

Model years: 2006. The VRSCSE2 was the first V-Rod or VRSC model to feature a 240 mm rear tire. It also featured the Screamin' Eagle 1,250 cc Revolution Engine.

VRSCR: Street Rod

Model years: 2006–2007. The Street Rod was marketed as the “roadster-inspired” member of the VRSC line. The Street Rod was the first VRSC to ever feature inverted forks made by Showa, with a steep rake and Brembo supplied brakes. It also featured the highest seat height at 30 inches (76 cm) of any VRSC model. The Street Rod also claimed the greatest lean angle at 40°, over the 32° lean of the other VRSC models. The Street Rod came equipped solely with mid-mounted controls. The Street Rod would be the first to feature the 5 gallon tank in the 2006 year model that would become standard for the line in 2007.

 

VRSCX: V-Rod

Model years: 2007. Harley Davidson put out the VRSCX as a Screamin' Eagle Tribute bike in honor of the Harley V-Rod's second consecutive NHRA Championship. The VRSCX had the same dimensions as the 2007 VRSCAW, featuring the 240 mm rear tire, 5 gallon gas tank, and forward controls. However, the VRSCX also featured a tribute paint job reminiscent of the pro stock V-Rod, a smoked drag-visor windshield, as well as the 1,250 cc Screamin' Eagle Revolution Engine.

VRXSE: V-Rod "Destroyer"

In 2007 Harley Davidson Introduced a non-street legal, out of the box drag bike nicknamed the Destroyer. With ET's of 8 to 10 seconds with a decent rider, this bike came with the same engines as others in its family, with the exception of a long stroke flywheel, over-sized valves, dyno tuned velocity stacks, large bore high compression forged pistons, high lift cams, multi stage lock-up clutch, programmable shift light, pneumatic shifter, larger throttle bodies, and much more race equipment.

The Revolution engine

The Revolution engine is based on the VR-1000 Superbike race program, developed by Harley-Davidson's Powertrain Engineering team. It is a liquid-cooled, dual-overhead-cam, internally counterbalanced 60 degree V-twin engine with a displacement of 69 cubic inches (1,130 cc), producing 115 horsepower (86 kW) at 8,250 rpm at the crank, with a redline of 9,000 rpm. It was introduced for the new V-Rod line in 2001 for the 2002 model year, starting with the single VRSCA (V-Twin Racing Street Custom) model.

A 1,250 cc Screamin' Eagle version of the Revolution engine was made available for 2005, and was present thereafter in a single production model from 2005 to 2007. In 2008, the 1,250 cc Revolution Engine became standard for the entire VRSC line. Harley-Davidson claims 123 horsepower (92 kW) at the crank for the 2008 VRSCAW model. The VRXSE Destroyer is equipped with a stroker (75 mm crank) Screamin’ Eagle 1,300 cubic centimeters (79 cu in) Revolution Engine, producing over 165 horsepower (123 kW).
