First of all, I need to apologize to all NFS fans out there if the livery looks sloppy. I am a bit of a novice when it comes to complex builds and this by far was the hardest for me.
The Hero's Car as we all know is the protagonist's car from the beloved racing video game series "Need For Speed". This is a generic representation of the car present in the game.
Technical Information:
This model features;
- A working front and rear suspension
- A working steering system
- A working V8 engine with a driveshaft running to the rear wheel system, articulated with universal joints.
- Openable hood, doors and trunk
The car is built to an approximate scale and in the general size of a technic car. The roll cage was the best effort in my experience with the digital builder. The car's colours I used were in the Silver and Blue livery. There were some arguments about whether the body colour was silver or blue, but my research concluded that the actual colour was silver.
The interior is what I'm most proud of since it's mostly my ideas. The photographic resources from the actual game are very scarce regarding the car's interior. The only certified things are the red and black racing seat and the N₂O delivery system. The driveshaft is covered near the shifter and is visible if the rear cover is removed behind the seat.
Why I built it...
This build was inspired by the countless attempts made by other creators to make a representation of this car accurately, but still not being able to achieve the goal. All the models I've seen so far were built small to minifigure scale, but I wanted to "go big or go home". Also, it was my goal to make a stronger bond between technic and regular elements, which I haven't seen in many sets. This set was an endeavour to expand the possibilities of Lego in whatever way I could.
My primary goal was to see the Lego set of mine and countless others' dreams come to life. Many Lego fans and gamers adore this car in their hearts, so it presented me with an opportunity to create a build that would be worthwhile.
Why would it make a great Lego set...
Automobiles and Lego have been to run along smoothly. This set adheres to fans of Lego, racing, gaming, and the automobile industry in general. So I see this set to be presented to a larger crowd who will be wanting this in their collection.
Please suggest any improvements in the comment section, I will consider them in my future builds and fine-tune my skills.
