Build a model car, but make it weird | GRM April model car contest

Sure, you could follow the directions that came with that model car, but if we all applied that logic to life, would we even have events like our $2000 Challenge?

Fitting, then, that the latest round of the GRM model car contest is all about keeping it weird in celebration of April Fools. This time, forum user AClockworkGarage is in charge:

If I had to sum up GRM in one sentence it would be "we once autocrossed a zamboni."

So the challenge it this. Think outside the box. build a model with a crazy engine swap, a stanced semi truck, a prius on tank treads, a 6 wheel drive miata, a gasser limousine. Go nuts, The weirder the better.

Because I got stuck in charge of this round and because I want there to be enough time to finish whatever odd things you dream up the contest will conclude at midnight on April 30th.

Your time starts now.

Nova rear floor pan and tubs now mated to the BMW front. Turbo 6 or V8?
