Lego Derby Car #8 (rear)

            After doing several Races round the dining  room table with the  modded Lego City Race Car Sets (60322) that I made my nephew, It was very aparrent how frail they were, and how easily it was to knock loose the driver from the cockpit. With my nephews neophyte lego skills in mind I set out to build something new for him that was both simple and robust.  The design was inspired various open wheel race cars from the 50s and 60s, mainly Indy and F1 Cars. This is the second Lego Derby Car in the series I'm making. I did away with simplicity here and went with my standerd V8 engine design, which is in one form or another is in most of my cars. I put open 1x1 round plates to represent carburetors. The tail pipes on the end make it a bit more frail than the first car but still surprisingly robust.
