    Car received yesterday and built.  Completed the finishing touches tonight (see pics).

    Will be raced tomorrow night at CMSCC.  Build quality is excellent, chassis is lovely and great value for money kit.  Only thing different on my car is de-dogz rear bumper, however this is just due to personal preference.  I will post an update after tomorrow's racing.

    Not going to post my initial testing results as i only got 2 races in then had to leave due to illness.  Turned out to be the flu and i was off work all week!

    Initial testing done with a 2 litre sapphire shell, next testing being carried out with the 1300 shell i just chucked together.  If i like it, i plan to keep it even for 6 cell use.  Not quite as detailed as my 2l shell, but then its harder to fit vinyl with the side bars.

    Been running my SS in 4 cell and 5 cell configuration for the last couple of months to great effect, so much so that I have become a bit of a target recently.
    So last night I decided to go with 6 cells and the atom esc. WOW what a combination even with the older well used cells I have, my SS was easily as quick
    if not quicker than the best on the night resulting in a final win against Sam Cam on its first 6 cell outing. Now to get some decent cells and a suspension tweek
    or two to reduce the initial wheelspin and stop it lifting the inside front in the bends and it will be AWESOME :-)

    Don't tell everyone Ray as we could reach the 100 kits sold mark sooner than thought
