Stop teasing me!!! Are they shipped yet??? :D

An X-5 with a tranny for Dummies would certainly do the trick! :lol:

Sorry for the tease ! I don't think Olivier has received his chassis yet.

andy05 05-05-2008 08:48 PM

Are all the driveshafts avaible from associated or some where or are they custom they look great:thumbsup:

Gayo 05-05-2008 09:43 PM

They are not available, Olivier polished his CVAs.

My word! He even polished the springs! And left just a little paint at the bottom for identification!

andy05 05-05-2008 10:17 PM

Not exactly SHY... put springs in a glass, fill it with acetone until level is just below the top of the spring. Leave them one night and then strip paint with metallic brush :wub

Olivier, you know this would be the ultimate car for you?

http://www.ymr.no/bilder/SMP/v2003/V...r_withlogo.jpg

SMP Racing Enineering's Slide (swiss). The car is 99% CNC machined alloy, then chromed... It's the most Bling Bling RC car ever made! :D

(more on www.ymr.no)

Oliv996 06-05-2008 06:16 AM

Could be.............. but I don't like RC smelly things

I would prefer this one: :lol:

Nice one! :wub

You can always convert to B/L these days! :D

Ye but imagine the polishing on an all bare metal seven like that, and the price tag if you dented on of those wings :bored: very pretty though, i like the bare metal ones, especially with cycle wings.

SHY 06-05-2008 06:59 AM

Not to mention the reflexes from the sun! Very disturbing!

I ran that Chrome Slide for some seasons, and it really glimsed in the sun sometimes, even from under the bodyshell. Looked like a small blitz, and it actually can be disturbing! :D

Well, I'm already quite disturbed so no biggie for me...

josh_smaxx 06-05-2008 04:27 PM

Off topic but all sevens should have a carbon aero screen, black exhaust cover, black 5 3/4" head lights and every part that can be made of carbon; in carbon, just my £0.02 anyway :thumbsup:

Lee 06-05-2008 04:31 PM

agreed josh the trailing wings make the front wheels lift at speed, it can get hairy at times :woot:

Mine does not have all this carbon parts on it. It's simply a old school Caterham car and I love it this way :wub

SHY 06-05-2008 06:09 PM

Here they are, the first ten kits are almost ready to be shipped to the first ten drivers who pre-ordered their MiD44 conversion kit. For theses guys, just wait few days and see how the manufacturer has done a good job. BTW, have a look on theses pics:
