Pure insanity. I bet I'd end up killing myself if I tried to drive that thing. Awesome work!

Beautiful build with great detailing thru-out. Really a work of model art. One thing that sticks out for me is the great placement of the headlights and the masterfull work on the exhaust system.

[Scale-Master]

Wow. One word comes to mind. BRUTAL!

Yeah, it looks like the kind of car that can smell your fear from a half mile away, doesn't it? It's like a modern F1 car without the aerodynamics. Absolutely wicked build, and I'm glad to see it completed! I have no plans to pick a 'best model' for the group build, but this has definately been one of my favorites!

Looking forward to seeing some outdoor pics- let's see it shown off the way it deserves. And please go ahead and add it to the Completed Group Build thread!

Absolutely terrific Martin, from concept to execution - simply superb! This is one of these models that you see and it stays in your mind for a long time and inspire you to build something. Congrats!

Love the stance, wheels, tires and most of all thoe headers. They are pure sex, the collector/muffler was a great idea. Also like the low headlights. For some reason the air filters look bad in green and don't look as detailed as the rest of the car.

Thank you for all your nice comments !
The carbon is of the brand "Modeler's"

As promised here are some outdoor pics:
Some daylight pictures, and also a comparison to a 1/24 Gallardo.
(I'm not very hapy with the airfilters either..shows especially in daylight. Oh well..)

It sure looks like it would order Gallardo for lunch

Awesome work, the detail is great. Carbon looks flawless, you made it look so easy. Also the piece of diamond plate looks so cool. We need another group build but with another subject!

[Deviant]

It looks amazing, just flawless. Excellent build.

Your job, martin, is really incredible. Perfect execution apart, you done something inspiring, with those well calibrated touchs of color and those badass hi tech appeal, I love also pull-rod shocks geometry and the way you redesigned the engine hood to put a big block in the belly... fantastic. The only thinh seems a bit strange to me are those massive front cicle fenders but the look is awesome. BRAVO!

Sorry to bring this to the top (not... haha)

Anyway, this is AMAZING! I think this is the coolest model I have ever seen. I just placed an order for a Super 7 after reading your progress thread...

Dude, it all works perfect. Excellent job!

Wow, that is truly insane..

I could imagine that frame twisting like this when you piled some revs on..

[Uninen]

Whoa! That's insane! What a power-to-weight ratio! Staggering build! Nice job Martin!
