Awesome!
 Have you considered more challenging prototypes like the 905? |

Fantastic Greg! I love that Nissan. That looks a lot more complete then the official Porsche GT3RS which has some serious panel gaps (yes I know it's Technic). I know what I'd rather have on my desk

Thanks Mechanic Z
Things you can't see with pics, and can be applied to all my cars: - No rubbing in wheel arches, even with suspensions compressed at max and/or steering at max LH or RH. - Solid and strong construction: my moto is "accurate & strong", they are designed to be manipulated without falling apart. Each chassis is first test crashed from a 50cm table to validate chassis/engine linkage. (linkage that is Axial AND radial: it's bone solid and can be disassembled thanks to a pin system i've developped). - Suspensions arms built with lego beams and connectors. I nearly never use "ready to use" Lego suspensions arms or wheel hubs. Not i don't like them but i prefer the "tunable factor" of using generic technic parts. Hence, no restriction in possibilities. - And, of course, apart stickers, LEGO parts only. |

In a parallel world, if Lola had built the T92/10 platform for Renault Alpine and not Nissan, it might have looked like this:

Nothing even close to the masterpieces Greg builds, but I rebuilt the Speed Champions McLaren P1 into one of the K-Pax Racing/Flying Lizard McLaren 650s.

 You keep outdoing yourself with these brick-built bodyworks, Greg. I can't wait to see how you've modelled the R26B! By the way, have you kept up with the current Rebrick Porsche competition? Steph77 and Charbel have done two brilliant versions of the 919...

Greg,
I'm always amazed with your work. Your Mazda looks wonderful. The detail and way in which you master fluid curves is quite something. |

There's currently a Porsche-based competition over at Rebrick with some fantastic entries, but I think this one deserves some extra recognition...
         ...Wow. More pictures here, (because you're going to want to see as much of this marvel as possible) and a video demonstrating the excellently engineered functions here. |

You've really got a handle on the front nose of these brick-built Porsches. Another stunning creation Greg
