part of the warpage problem is probably because of that brittle metallic plastic that these were molded in. My original issue super spurt wasn't warped at all (and it was molded in metallic green plastic that was VERY brittle.) Man this came out great, but i think you have the grill (logo) bar on upside down.

That is off the charts Luca!!! I like how you did the front axle, and the grille bar matches the box art.....

yep, you're right about the grill bar. I just looked at a real one, and it's the same way. I was thinking that it went the other way around with the pointed side to the top. oh well, i was wrong again!

Luca, that came out great.
I'll have to check my SS and see how it looks for warpage now.

Really nice build Luca. I love how the front wheels are pose-able. Even ackerman steering.

Kool looking build. I have a question ?? those rear wheels........... are they the originals.

The rear wheels are of my own making - they are not the originals.
I am convinced that the Go Mad has a twist in the body just like the Super Spurt because of the crazy green plastic. Can anyone else confirm this or have I just been unlucky with the all the ones I built?

Every time I see one of these I kick myself in the ass. I gave mine to my son and that was the end of it.

Can anyone else confirm this or have I just been unlucky with the all the ones I built? Mine is perfectly straight. No problems

Great build. I really like the re-work of the front axle.
