Not much is known about the driver of the Black Scent, Gaenef Hade. His vehicle, however, is an excellent performer in the races, and features a high-torque drive and full-cockpit blast shield with titled slits for viewing.
This is, I think, the first non-Nnenn
tread racer. Fantastic idea, Nnenn!
That's all! C&C welcome as usual.

Is this going to be another series of awesomeness?

I actually almost built a tread-cycle when I first got my treads, but couldn't find the right parts for it.

Awesome job, but what the hell were you trying to accomplish with the thread title?

Thanks guys. And no, I probably won't be making more of these.
Also, I don't know what in Pete happened with the title. I probably accidentally pressed a paste shortcut or something.

I love the way you built the curved sections around the nose and tail fin (why would a racer need a vertical tail fin?). Brikwars should have racing rules with stats for speed, power, handling, durability, etc...

Because it looks cool.
And for something like this where there's only one tread and nothing else to steer (you can't really lean if you're enclosed like that) then you need something to steer left and right.

Awesome as usual.
The topic title is a bit messed up...

Yeah. I just pretend there's a dirt-rudder under the cab.
