Urokko line-up (current)
Urokko line-up (current)

If it wasn't for the four Tiny Turbo pioneers (all tagged), I wouldn't have had anyone to look up to in my early days of TT MOCing, and most likely wouldn't be where I am now. These people inspired and overall helped immensely, and hopefully won't mind the tagging. Right now I feel like I am in the same pot with everyone else, in the community, and that's what really matters to me. I follow people whose uploads interest me and we are having conversations. Not a thing I would change!

Well, on to the topic. Building fictional cars and having a personal car-manufacturing company are very closely related activities. Before I founded my own company, my car design process was in disarray, but once Urokko was born - it all fell into places. The majority of my cars are still independent, yet having a lasting trademark design helps tremendously. And I have another company emerging at a later point, Tiburron, which will boast shark-inspired designs instead of a common chassis.

So I decided that I should not keep the current line-up to myself. I just hope that you don't mind the virtual renders. Eventually, all of these will come to life - possibly with further tweaks, and new models will join the ranks! Now, some may find these to be trimmed to an unacceptable extreme, looking too dissimilar to actual cars. But hey, it is 200 years older Japan after all! Here are the descriptions to the 14 crazy contraptions produced by a group of Japanese engineers and designers. Pictures from left to right, top to bottom.

1. Ichi - the very first model - found here.

2. Fishbone - an unsafe-looking land speed record-breaker - here.

3. T1 - a track beast - already surfaced here.

4. T2 - another track beast - this one utilises an old sunroof piece. T-t-t-tear the t-t-t-tarmac!!!

5. MARS - this rover will be hauling your potatoes and stuff once we eventually land on Mars.

6. Hyper - a menacing hypercar. And it looks fancy. Need I say more?

7. Regal - a rolling chunk of swag, will take a peculiar backstory to justify its existence.

8. WIndstream - a rolling wind tunnel, even its headlights are wrapped around intakes.

9. (classified) - utilises some strange tech and the MightyMicro wheelbase. M-m-m-mighty!

10. ??? - holy guacamole what is this?!... Should be called DD-0 for "zero downforce deficit".

11. Police - this thing opens up mid-way during a pursuit and shoots electromagnetic bolts. Scary stuff.

12. T-RX - if this reminds you of a trike, then guess what, it is meant to do that!

13. Tigershark - an Urokko-Tiburron collaboration. A shark, obviously.

14. Midori - an eco-powered supercar. A small company could always use some positive publicity, right?
