Title: Fourth and Final GT Pro........
Post by: Macmania on August 10, 2010, 04:01 PM: As you know by now my favourite brand from bitd is MT Racing but my next favourite is GT. This is my fourth GT build and to be honest I wasn't sure where to take this one as I personally don't think I could improve on the previous three GT builds.
Anyway, here she is. Hope you like her :)

I like how you have the tyre logos beside the valve hole on every wheel and how you have the valves at 6 o'clock on each bike. Now that's a serious case of OCD IMO. :D

EDIT. Just noticed that you've got all 4 sets of cranks set at the same position, too. You have got it bad. ;D
