Backed it into my shop tonight and took a look around. I am not disappointed. It is perfect for me because it is not perfect, but it is mostly minor items that need attention. The motors sound perfect. The engine compartment in these things are like a dance hall compared to my Formula, I actually look forward to working on it.

I should be able to, but I will never leave well enough alone. I immediately started perusing the Raylar website. The cost difference between the 525 and 600 kit really isn't that much and then you have forged slugs.... This is how bad things happen.
