I saw this video about three years ago and it is still unbelievable today. This is pure dedication and wanting to achieve his dreams of building this model

I don't even know what to say.
i didnt watch the video cause i dont have realplayer, but is that the wooden model of the F50??
that is... i have no words for that. it took him 12 years to make a completely accurate and fully functional model of that car, down to actual fuel injection. all built from scratch. absolutely insane.

Wow absolutely insane!

I did some quick google action and came up with the following site which has some more background info and some pics.

Amazing!
That does kick ass. Although I have to question, wouldn't it have
been just about the same difficulty to build the thing FULL SIZE?!
Then you'd be able to drive it, too.
I love that video. I've had a copy on my hard drive for years. I wish I could find a higher resolution version. The announcer sounds like the Top Gear guy.
I always thought Ferrari should swap him. Something off the line for his, straight up.

does anyone know of a wmv or mov or avi of that file?
I hate real and won't install it on any of my computers.
thanks
You think his motor would fit in a teener? Prolly puts out more HP than my stock 1.7.
Anyway, that is awesome dedication. Now what is he gonna do?

You know, the part that gets me is the sound. It sounds just like a real F-car.
Wow. Artist or nuts. No matter what you think you certainly have to admire the job he did. I've seen a lot of scale models but rarely one with all the functioning mechanicals. That B52 that the guys in England built (and crashed) comes close but this is in a class by itself. The part of the video with the tach summed it up pretty well. Thanks for sharing.
