LEGO Technic 42033, Record Breaker, is a sport styled vehicle model released in 2015.

Set 42033, Record Breaker, is part of the LEGO Technic theme. In the Technic range, the emphasis is on the constructed vehicle and its mechanical building style rather than on character based storytelling.

The build therefore centers on Technic elements that form the vehicle structure, using the system’s beams, axles, connectors, and related parts.

The model suits builders who want a small Technic vehicle for play, display, or a theme based collection.
