Racer Mechs roundup
The racer mechs started by Legohaulic have inspired various versions created by other builders. The simple and sturdy design of the basic frame (building instructions) allows for much diversity to these runner machines, as you can see below.
Mechs from top left created by: Legohaulic, Proudlove, Nannan, arpy , peterlmorris , Legohaulic, -: Evo :-, Hase0, Pyreƒyre, and legovaughan.
But that’s not all folks, there’s certainly a few more that you should check out. See them all in the flickr Racer Mecha pool.

Vaughan’s is probably my favorite. I think I will try to build one of these once reunited with my collection…

I wonder why builders are so eager to create more genres(could I say?) for the lego community. Seems a bit odd, it does.
I personally enjoy that first red one by Legohaulic, Nannan’s, and the blue one with the turbines by peterlmorris.

Could you post the MPD file somewhere (or email it to me)?I’m so dumb… that belonged on Tyler’s flickr post…September 6th, 2008 at 6:07 pm
No problem Tim. You can find an MPD on the Flicker group page. :)

Wow, these are much better than the racing mech I built back in ‘06. (Never was satisfied with it.) The bare-bones frame allows for a good degree of variation I see. It’d be cool to see some frames for other mech types as well. :)
For the few who may be interested, I’ve linked my name to the page with my mech.
