  • The LEGO Technic 42153 NASCAR Next Gen Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 is the second set of the March 2023 wave I review. It joins several other Technic cars sharing the same scale (yes, it fits on the Car Transporter), but does it have anything extra compared to them? Let's find out in the video!

    A comment about 7:25. I might be mistaking, but I think the reason for no opening doors on the Camaro is because the real NASCAR cars also don't have opening doors since the drivers get in and out through the doors window gap.

    • @RacingBrick
      @RacingBrick  Рік тому +44

      Haha, sure they don't open, I was wondering how many people will spot this, especially the ones always looking for more functions in smaller models ;)

    • @JAlexanderCurtis
      @JAlexanderCurtis Рік тому +18

      You're correct. The real Nascar cars don't have working doors. It would have been easy and cheap to add a hinge on these doors in the Technic set (like two pins probably), so I'm sure the fact that they DON'T open was intentional by the Lego team to make it authentic. If they had working doors people would have complained that the real cars don't.

    • @Void_s
      @Void_s Рік тому +3

      Moreover, the model's arciteture somehow reflects the NASCAR Car's structure: the body has a 1/2 offset in high to the chassis, and has relatively few connection points.
      Too bad they didn't highlight it during the building process, that real-live cars are the "integral buggy-like chassis" covered with fiberglass panels...

  • @JAlexanderCurtis
    @JAlexanderCurtis Рік тому +158

    The lack of "features" on this set could actually be argued as making it more authentic. For example real Nascar cars don't have doors, the drivers climb through the window area (but there are no windows). Also the real cars have stickers for their lights, so stickers for the lights on the Lego set could be considered more authentic. Not sure if they were thinking that when they did it, but they sort of lucked out.

    • @JAlexanderCurtis
      @JAlexanderCurtis Рік тому +14

      I really agree, these feel like Technic versions of Speed Champions and I really like it. They might not be as advanced as the bigger sets in functionality but I love that they are all to scale with each other and that at $50 (and often $40 since they go on sale often), it is easy to collect them all as impulse buys when you are looking for a build. It is the same reason I collect all the speed champions. I'm a big fan of this $50 technic car series.

    The comment about the steering just before 4:20 is so appropriate. I made the same mistake when assembled the pieces. Also as many pointed out in the comments, Lego should have added more text to the fact that Nascar is celebrating its 75th anniversary. I saw their video after assembling the car.

    Surprisingly interesting model for the scale and price with this new approach for the engine at the front. With that said, I did fit more in this scale, including full size piston blocks, full size hood and doors, and modular detachable body, so I guess what this set's got going for it instead is rigidity aimed and younger builders.

    You probably already get alot of comments about this, I haven't read any comments, but the reason the Camaro's doors don't open, is simply because real NASCAR, ARCA, more official motorsports won't have doors, more of a window well and a net which they climb through.

    When I see your build error on the HOG steering it gives me hope that I'll make it through a full Technic build without an error along the way .... well, maybe.
    This is surprisingly a good looking build. Lego have done a good job with this scale of Technic builds within a very good price-point as not everyone can afford the high-end builds over $200 (or $150 for that matter). The differential will sway many builders. I agree also that the release livery was nicer looking, but this is an in-your-face NASCAR build, and I think that we can give Lego a pass on that. I'd be tempted to pass on the front not-really-white hood lip stickers with the image of the hood pins altogether. I would have preferred a grey pin through the panel to replicate this feature of a real NASCAR vehicle. As NASCAR vehicles don't have opening doors by design not having them open on this build is actually more authentic then having doors that open.
    I do see why the Bolide and Senna are more interesting builds. I have just started these Technic builds and may well get this down the road, but no urgency at this point in time as I currently have the Bolide in my queue to build first.
    Thanks for your great reviews!

    I considered collecting these cars in the same scale 1 to 17/18, but gave up, since the two with the pullback feature was very underwhelming and the "muscled" ones overall has a very similar, almost copypaste-felt design (the roof for example is the same with every muscle variant of this scale), which is again, very underwhelming. I just hope LEGO will stay on path with the bugatti and senna variants, because they have 3 functions, which is pretty neat (differential, hand-of-god steering, doors), but my biggest hopes with the new sport car scale with the GT. I hope they give us more with this scale because at that size they really have no excuse to don't include some standard functionality like doors, engine openings, working engine, hand-of-god steering, and some extras like the retractable spoiler. Also, they will have much more window for unique building techniques like the surprisingly colorful Speed Champions sets do.

    A bit surprised that you recommend the Bugatti Bolide over this one. From what I see, the Bugatti doesn't have a differential (although it has a nice v16 engine). Do you think this would be better if I wanted to get it for motorizing it?
