OMG. Did you see the engine! That guy must be devoted.
I wish they had more shots of the car.. That was sweet. Maybee Mini Me could fit in and drive it...
that was really awesome. It is amazing what people can do with time and a cause :thumb:
Wow. That is beyond words. It looks like he used click-pen springs for the valves. That's...just...amazing.
Wonderfully amazing! The dedication on this man to build this model! He definitely picked a most beautiful car to replicate! :bowdown:
most astonishing!! :bowdown:
But for 30,000 hours of work he could have built a full scale replica and at least driven it.
He has alot of spare time.. but that car definitely kicks butt!!
farkin WOW :o :o :o

this guy does similar stuff, but even smaller.
He made a fully working I4 that is about the size of 2 quarters.

and this guy made the worlds smallest supercharged V8.
what i dont get about the ferarri, is that he says its a 100cc engine. if it is 100cc, and its a 1/3rd scale model, wouldnt that make the ferrarri original only have a 300cc engine?
The whole thing seemed smaller than 1/3 scale to me :dunno_white:
What I was wondering is how it would do in a small motorcycle or scooter... 100cc 12 cylinder scooter sounds like a lot of fun :laugh:

I don't think so...
I think you're still thinking in linear temrs... 2 dimensions.
I'm too tired to actually think about it, but maybe one of the geniuses can pipe up...
Actually... I'm re-thinking...
If you take a 12" x 12" square, and you DOUBLE the size, the size is 24" x 24", right? The original is 1 sq ft, while the square that's doubled in size is 4 sq ft.
so...
if you take a 1' x 1' x 1' BOX and triple the size... you get a 3' x 3' x 3' box. The increase is from 1sq ft cubed, to 9 sq ft cubed...
so if my logic is right, the ferrari should be 9 times the size in terms of CC's.
Is this correct???
Correct, i can't remeber the exact terminology for this rule and nor can i be arsed to look it up in my book - i spose i should know it doing a level maths heh. But your right ann
farthest math i ever got to was high school precalc
and i failed that.
I didn't know there was a term for it. I took three calculus courses in high school, and about 6 in college... all in four years... two in hs, two in college.
Those years sucked.. :laugh:
Hehe im doing A-level maths at the moment
Im not sure what its called its something to do with proportion, like directly proportional that sorta thing
so a 1/3 scale 100cc engine would be the equivalent to a 900cc engine.
I don't think that's right... I figure those engines are over a liter...
Interesting read, I tell ya!

AN had it right to begin with. Scaling of volume is not linear.
To arrive at the new volume you must multiply the original by the scaling factor cubed.
3 cubed = 27
100 x 27 = 2.7L
