yokomo made it then
here are the links i found
http://www.cmldistribution.co.uk/pro...subMenu=CR-KIT £399 oww thats really going to hurt and http://www.modelsport.co.uk/?CallFun...n&ItemID=24621 only slightly better at £379 |
I tell you what this car is worth every penny, this is a easier car i have ever built, the quality is just unbilivable. Great fit a finish, comes together really nice. I hope it runs as good as it looks!
|
Its a shame there aren't Ti screws, I think that would be max-blingage, but still, for the money you are still getting a lot of car.
|
I tell you something the screws included in the kit are great, i like them better then the ones on my Predator, and hell of lot better then the ZX5.
In fact is one of the things I like the most on the car, they are really strong. |
true they are good screws, not quite as nice as a set of lunsfords tho ;) the car looks like it would weigh a lot when done, anyone any idea ?
|
Have you got one Jimmy? :confused:
|
:cyclopsa:
no comment! :jimmeh |
Yeap. :D
|
Will finish mine tonight and let you guys know, but it does feel heavy aready.
|
I lied, sorry everyone. ;)

Nice job Jimmy, them pre-cut masks are ace dude...
Posty delivered ou a jiffy bag yet... gone 1pm, need to know if I can claim me postage back, lol |
lol gonna check in a bit mate, its the in laws house ysee as we are hardly ever home!
|
Ohhhhhhhhhh how can you lie like that! thati sno right! lol.
Nice job, how long did it take you to put it together? |
Any tips for me before i finish mine?
|
Dont really have any tips as such, I got the rear diff in the wrong way round , just meant it was to the side a little, fixed it now.. the turnbuckles definately do need greasing before putting the ball ends on.
The car is so easy to put together and theres so little work that theres not much to say! |
Oh, ive had the car over a week, so its taken me that long. thats with doing the review and photos etc though which takes up a lot of time
|
sorry but that side of the shell is just as ugly as the x-5's 'lump'.
any cml driver gives the x-5 shell abuse ill throw some back at them too:D ive knew about this for ages and had to keep mi mouth shut :( |
I think the 'lump' has been far better executed on the Yokomo though, and that goes for the rest of the shell, it looks far more 'designed' than a runny blob of resin oozed over a car.
|
The only part I did wrong was the universal, put the short one in the rear, everything else is going in nicely.
|
yes but at least the x5 shell is being honest about having a lump, the yoke shell is trying to hide the fact its there, in a crap kind of way.
maybe its the blue influenceing me, i dont like it as its a common colour on cars it seems:rolleyes: |
|
Wait a min, those tires aren't the Schumacher mini pins.... are you guys running on American style tracks now? ;) Nice looking car there Jimmy. I anxiously await your review.
|
hehe took it out on 2wd day with Ian Barnards Euros (for this upcoming Euros in Austria) tyres on the car- not glued up, just for photos! ;) looks all american tho on the dirt with those tyres.. I actually glued up schumacher yellow mini spikes which turned out to be somewhat of an error.
Thanks again to Ian Barnard for saving the day by lending me his practice tyres so i could dominate my final ! lol |
jimmy, noticed on your photos you dont have any dust covers on the diffs, i assume it comes with some or do you have to fashion your own?
