Description
Well this came out way different from what I originally planed. It was meant to be a younger/hatchling version of one my OC monsters, Magnis, working on a little Franken-go-kart to play with. Instead I ended with him being a couple decades older and a car that looks more like the iconic P34. I figured instead of scrapping it, I just keep going and see what I end up with. I guess I'll call this more of a study on how to fine tune their designs in future drawings.

And yes that is a Godzilla poster in the background

As always, constructive feedback would be greatly appriciated!

The dragon: Magnis
kaiju version here- manaista.deviantart.com/art/No…
In short, the non-kaiju version of this guy is a little dragon with magnetic powers, fire breath that can slice through a 6in thick I-beam in a few seconds, and a strong desire to tinker around with anything metallic he finds.

Even though he could easily survive without human technology, observing the sort of machines the humans built peaked his curiosity enough to try build some of his own. One particular example... the humans seemed to enjoy strapping themselves into these cages of metal, and rely almost entirely on friction to control the cages through wheels, levers, and pedals. They called these things "Cars."
------------------------------------------------------

The car: X1
In short, an experimental car Magnis built out the various remains of other scraped racecars.

Engine/ powertrain:
A 4.1 L DOHC aluminum v6 with twin turbochargers rated to 420Hp and 350 ft-lbs of torque (not including his power assistance)
connected to a six speed manual transmission with a special built shifter, clutch, and hybrid system (see below for details)

Other notable features:

Wing controlled wings- with special harnesses attached to Magnis' wing tips (the tops of his wings tuck into the body towards the engine while his wing tips point towards his feet) attached to a series levers and pulleys, he can adjust the angle of attack of the spoilers in real time. Opening his wings slightly cause the spoilers to take a high downforce position while tucking in his wings slightly moves the spoilers into a low drag position

Tail controlled transmission- His prehensile tail snakes through engine bay to reach the shifter lever directly on the transmission while his magnetic powers push and pull a lever used for the clutch.

Kaiju powered hybrid?!- Attached to the powertrain is a special twin clutched flywheel that he can easily apply his magnetic powers to assist the engine and brakes (essentially giving him a near direct feel of what the engine and wheels are doing). He can spin the flywheel faster to give the car up a 200Hp equivalent boost! He can also apply force against the flywheel turning it into a 200hp brake.
