Passion, It's the thing that drives us to achieve. The push we feel to dare to dream something, ideal, and then manifest that vision into reality. For anyone who's ever fallen head over heels into an engine bay, or body work, or getting your car track ready, YOU KNOW that feeling that drives you to customize and make things as you feel they should be. Your intuition is second to none.  RC Car Skyline GTR R34 Custom Built Remote Control Car This GTR is no different from any of the other incredible cars featured on this site ( just look around; there's red ones , blue ones , silver ones , white ones , black ones ) - except for one, small, detail. - It's 1/7th the size! You wouldn't be able to fit inside it, but it still rips around like a GTR should, and is a whole lot of fun to drive I'm sure, and the customization on this build is phenomenal.  Nissan Skyline GTR RC Car Rear End Spotted on the RC sub, user XJuggernaut101 shared their build story with us of ho...

GIF Blackbird by The Mill VFX Technology Car

Imagine a car with chameleon like abilities - this is it. A visual effects solution for automotive advertising, for a problem most manufacturers likely didn't even realize existed. This is very clever idea that frankly, we all should've thought up sooner! The technology required to do this has been around, it just took someone thinking side-ways to put it all together into something useful.

As The Mill explains in their video below, they have created a fully adjustable "car" which can be made to handle similarly enough to any road going vehicle, including adjustable wheelbase and suspension.

The Blackbird is an all black tube-frame chassis that can have any digital asset overlain onto it, The Mill then uses it's laser scanning system and camera array's to map and track the environment around it. This also enables full VR capabilities.

The Blackbird can shape shift into anything really, and do anything on screen. The Mill has done something truly special here, and again, it has nothing to do with the technology they've mashed together, and everything to do with the way they've presented the ability. This simplicity, just Awesome.
