Well, I like the car but not THAT much (mount has a double entendre in English).

I have only raced it twice on indoor off-road tracks. I am really impressed with the quality, durability and the fundamental ride and handling of it. But I have learned two things...

1. Run the transmission tight - let it bed in. Don't make the mistake I did and run it loose or you will kill the bevel gears.

2. Kit settings let the car roll a bit too much for UK tracks/tyres IMHO. Running the rear bar and the front shocks on the outer wishbone hole has made the car a lot more consistent.

Despite my share of crashes the only parts of the car that have been damaged are the front shock mounting screws which stick out a bit and take all the impacts. If anyone has a good tip for protecting them let me know...
