Perhaps some of you guys need to learn how to build a car for the abuse we give them these days on the track with the power we have. There is more than one way to build to the manual  No matter how much you spend on a kit, if it is thrown together it will not be reliable

Mine is much the same, plus the weight set. I've had next to nothing go wrong on it since I got it at launch.
Lost a few races early on through cvd pins coming loose, but I've had that on just about every car I've had this style of drive shaft on, but that's cos
I didn't put that part together right, not because Gerd designed it badly.
Just because something costs £450, doesn't mean you don't take care in building it, maybe those who have had problems with ball ends, drive shaft pins, bearings etc, should get a RTR car, as this might be a touch much for them
It's a bit like what Clarkson said about buying a used kit car, would you want one made my someone like James May, who will take his time, or do you want it built by a shaved ape like Clarkson?
