Affentitten Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Dunno why you'd go to all that hassle to build a 40% model. If you're building it from fibreglass you may as well go full scale! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Dunno why you'd go to all that hassle to build a 40% model. That may have been all the room he had in his work space. Or it may have been that fabricating the parts for a full-scale drive train would have exceeded his budget. In other words, I don't know either.

I'm not sure I agree with that. Is not a full-scale mockup a model? Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
