how acceptable is it to have to modify, dereml, drill parts on your car to make it fit or to get it to work?
would not not buy a car because of this?
do you like to do this?
do you expect a national level competition kit to have to be finished by hand?

I think the kit supplied is good, but to the general rules of course. Obviously I wouldnt expect it to be done by hand, rather the items for the prototype done by hand and tested well before the molds are made and sold (like of course your proto cars and like my old proto ZXS buggies), and like yourself there is always something after the kit is manufactured and made that you do not like or prefer to do slightly differently to better the car to your style of driving.
However the kits should have readily available items such as hubs,castor blocks etc instead of having another outfit selling for more money.
It makes this hobby more interesting. But what is your opinion? You are developing cars so you have a different angle but it would be interesting.
