these are the instructions for my rally car, it is supposed to resemble 2012 Tanner Foust's rockstar energy fiesta (GRC), I made it focusing on the looks rather than features and judging by the comments its been a success! so these are the instructions! these are the pro's and con's...

pro's 6
independent suspension
opening doors
interior
rockstar energy colour scheme
moving seat
lots of extra detail like door handles (Inside)

con's 4

uses lots of y connecters and hinges
the back lights aren't great
and the suspension only works properly if you put the wheels inside
the arches (you can change it so that the wheels are under the
wheel arches instead if you want, however the suspension will
work no-where near as well)

not very durable

here are my 'stats' for this car, these are in relation to other cars I've built in the past. (Out of 5)

Durability **
The looks ****'
Features ***
Build difficulty ****

please rate and comment, especially if you have built it, and tell me if there are any
unclear
parts in the instructable.

sorry if parts of the instructable aren't clear (especially the step for the back of the car)

WARNING:The car uses a lot of hinges and y connectors 15 hinges and around 14 y-connectors and uses a lot of pieces altogether.

you can modify the suspension, maybe change it to the McPherson design like in the real car or change it so that it has steering

this step involves you having to just make do with some of the pictures as some show big parts to make and I couldn't make the parts smaller.

this step and step 5 are the most difficult to follow as when I was putting it back together I got confused!

What next? mod it, you can change the back lights so that it has a better shape and you can modify the suspension to the McPherson design and/or put steering on the front!      


I look forward to any new mods that you create, big or small!
