Don't know what you are talking about its all talk , talk , talk . It is true i have bought Georges old Mi3.5 off him  q3

Even if there is a new car its not my birthday yet so i would not be allowed it until then .............

I have asked the Family for the folloing though .....

Mi4  or LRP SPX

The SPX works out at £90 from where my relatives live in the USA

And if you belive the above you also belive in Father Christmas  q19  q19  q19

The Jungle Drums have started beating already I have had Texts in from loads of people asking the same question as you Captain .......

The Car seems realy good its the more free than any other car i have ever built , my only fault is the Turnbuckles they look like they will bend easy , and they are so tight you cant adjust them on the car If you try to turn them they pop off there the tread is so tight in the plastic , But they can be changed easly . I Wanted to run the car as Kit for the first time as I always try to But i may change the turnbuckles ..............

The Rear diff comes with Ceramic balls and there was a lot of them going in , very cleaver disign if a bit of a pain to put together .....

The Layshaft is held in by ONE screw , so spur gear changes and realy easy .....

The Motor is held in by one screw from the bottom of the clamp , then there are two screws to slide the motor back and forward ( loads of adjustment to allow for very large or very small spur gears )

The Diffs are held in by just two screws and are easy to adjuxt for both belt tention and diff hight ( which changes the angle of the driveshafts )
