It's like Legos, only slightly more complicated.

Edit- This is a great gift for your three year old. You might as well train him young.

well if you send him out with a one litre engine producing probably about 120-130 BHP, you might want to give him some lessons first...

He should make more of those engines. You could make some awsome stuff with a 12cyl that small. That's one of the most amazing things I have ever seen, and it goes to show that virtually anything is possible if you set your mind to it.
