Wow, that looks awesome. I dig your thang, betty... all of your cars look like they stomp the shit outta whatever is in their way. What's the story on the wheels you've been using? They look cool as hell.

hue, dem customised lego wheels. learn how to do them here:
http://www.geocities.com/bettyk3332003/wheelstute.html
http://www.geocities.com/bettyk3332003/tyrestute.html
as for the 9.0, it's designed by cold war scientists. a friend got me a copy of the plans. materials can be tricky to find, but most hardware shops should stock them. just ask at the counter for 'depleted uranium wire' and 'super conductor magnets'
thanks "d"! i'm not worthy! :bowdown:
