Lego Technic LPE Pneumatic Roadster Car

Prototype Roadster Inline 4 pneumatic. With power Function steering and battery box.
Few things noticed after this was the steering is much to fast needs to be 3x slower is 9;1 maybe 24:1 will work better.
The rims are slipping on the tires rear. Need to crazy glue them for faster take offs.

Impressive, at the beginning he/she thought that it was a motor of gasoline.

Brutal genius and an impressive force with the pneumatic pistons.

I suppose that the back motor is for the address of the car.

How does it go so fast without an air tube popping?

[222Doc]

Very small quick-ties on all tube ends.

nice work, what would be realy impressive is if someone could make a transport with the lego pumps in the trailer and have like a v6 in it or somthing, but than that gets me thinking, that it might just be more efficeint to just use the motors for the pumps too drive the transport...

Thanks, mine, if i was extremely lucky could work at 40 psi for a few fleeting seconds.
