Very interesting model engine builder
 
This link was in Hot Rod magazine this week. Check out the running V-8 engine MPEG's:

model engine builder

The part I like about it is that he (1) makes fully functioning/running models and (2) they appear to be IN HIS KITCHEN!!!!!

That's when you know you have it bad: when you've got car parts in the kitchen.

Those model engines absolutely kick ASS!!!

I'd LOVE to stuff one of those V8 beasts into my RC car!! :D

Thanks for sharing that. Very nice looking models:).

Glad you liked it. Did you see the MPEG? It sounds just like a radically cammed V-8.

Yup. I loved the sound of them. In fact, I'm gonna go download the mpegs on my entertainment center pc to listen to 'em on the big stereo instead of headphones like I did at work. :D

I think it would be a riot to show up at an RC car race with one of those and compete - especially with that functional blower on top!! :eek:

Sholin, thanks for this post. Those engines are GREAT!!

I can't wait 'till tomorrow to show them to a buddy of mine who has a few drag-racing cars and races regularly.
