It is amazing. I'm hopefully going to Amiens, where this guy lives, in December. I might look him up :)

AMAZING! A small scale 312 with all the working parts, including a V12 engine that makes the Ferrari sound! IT ACTUALLY RUNS! :) This guy deserves something big for all his hard work. Maybe Mr Ferrari could give him a real one! Pete

I wonder why that guy bothers to built a rather big model of the 312PB sport prototype, instead of building a real size replica? Space and resources does not seem to be the problem. -- Matthias Flatt
: I wonder why that guy bothers to built a rather big model of the 312PB : sport prototype, instead of building a real size replica? : Space and resources does not seem to be the problem. For the challenge, I guess. It's small enough to be do-able, with a lot of skill, but big enough to allow proper parts to be made, instead of some of the less-than-elegant cludges a smaller model would require for injection, ignition. Still, he could have scaled it up a little more and had one hell of a go-cart for his kids (assuming he had some time away from his 20,000 hour obsession to make a kid). Stephen
Because he wanted an EXACT copy...not some fake replica. Frankly, what he has achieved is AWESOME, and I'd like to shake him by the had, mention the words 250 GTO, and buy him a pint. doug

You can also download it as part of the Communicator 4.7 package from Netscape.

Get Real Player G2...its free and works great. You won't be disappointed once you see this guy's car!
