Some of us think we have some insane builds. This one takes the cake. I want one in my dining room.

I saw that a while back. I'm always admire the folks who have the talent and patience to scratch build something like that. It's one thing to make a model, but one that is completely functional - truly amazing!

Wow! Somebody should buy this guy a real Ferrari. Then, start bidding on his model. That is just insane. It belongs in a museum. I've never seen anything like that before.

I believe it was Clarkson... FYI, new Top Gear episodes are finally airing on BBC America if there are any fans of that show here.

So did I. I didn't watch the whole video, but I hoped they showed it running. Too cool.

Yeah, the guy turned the miniature Ferrari key and fired it up, then stuck his finger down on the accelerator pedal and rev'd it up a few times. He even put it in gear, though the car was on blocks. If there was ever a project ripe for installing RC gear! :shock:
