So far the kit is fitting together great... I made a few stuff ups... Some things I found a little unclear.
More to come tomorrow night I'm tired and have a 5am start tomorrow.

Very happy with the quality.

Cs ratio is at 144 I think I'd like to go higher with this though see how it runs on the track.

Overall the kit went together great and I'm stoked with it.

Then came the issue of none of my bodies fitting

So I grabbed the worst body I have and made it fit then tidied it up as much as I could.

It definitely needs stealth body mounts. [Image: 325d758d6d8e19090349ba943849ec5d.jpg][Image: 1520b85aa45c5aaef81546f12aac515e.jpg][Image: 58845a0f332a27da3294a182d33a9673.jpg][Image: 1eb623fdb2bd6ea5830bc92d01385ade.jpg]
