Mine arrived just over an hour ago.
Man - seriously nice bit of kit - EXTREMELY well presented.
Couple of interesting intial observations:
a) Made in Taiwan.
b) Parts quality is absolutely OUTSATNDING. Reminds me very much of X-Ray in terms of alloy and material quality. VERY impressive.
c) In reference to the question above - the front wheel off-set appears to be the same as the B44/CAT etc. Will be easier to tell once the car is built.
d) Manual is small and very well laid out - something that can be kept in the pit box for reference without taking up alot of room.
e) Did I mention that the parts quality is outstanding?
I ordered the optional spring set, brass weights and some spares. Spares pricing is VERY good - comparable with any car out there - in fact in alot of cases, the Durango parts are priced better.
Spring set is huge - 8 different pairs (meaning - 8 pairs of fronts and 8 pairs of rears!!!).....sucky thing is that there is no reference to their poundage anywhere!
I am sure that will come out soon though. Those brass weights are worth buying just to look at- really very nice indeed.
I suppose any new car is going to give you that "warm all over" glow, however with this kit you definately get the strong feeling that the extra dollars you spent on it are VERY MUCH worth it.
Sadly I wont be able to start building mine until next Monday - as I start 12 hour nightshifts with work tonight!
If you have been "thinking" about gettng a Durango - DONT hesitate - you will not be dissapointed in any way.
Cheers guys,
