I met Fabs today at Maison-Alfort (actually typing this from his appartment
) and received the kit.
I started to disassemble my RB5 and build my preciousss MCS.
As Fabs stated higher, I encountered several flaws in the production of the parts: example: holes that on the plan had to be drilled 3,2 mm diameter ... but still have to be drilled out a bit to be able to fit some 3mm-screws through ...
these are clearly production-errors and they all have to be corrected by Fabs by hand, before he can send the kits.
Some electronic-problems made it impossible for me to finish the car on time (read: before the rain fell) to do some test-runs, so that will be first thing tomorrow.
HOWEVER .... I did take PLENTY of pics so I plan on making a kind of build-manual within the next days.
Also seen today: a good french driver, given the MCS, did some testruns with the car but VERY sceptical at first ...
His first reaction after 4 laps: "That's a VEEERY good car! I'll defenitly race that car tomorrow"
Big Grin on Fabs face (= didn't I told you so?
) LOL
Problem is I don't have an excuse for bad performance tomorrow
