My build went really really well. Flew together actually.
My advice would be throw the car together and run it 3 packs. Then go back through and check things. Your x rings will swell so you need to do shocks anyways.
Everything should be pretty free and then I would start making adjustments. My car first pack it felt good not great and now the car is pretty damn good. 7 packs in

No, there are not a lot of problems. A couple of minor things people are finding. Move a couple of shims from one side to the other, clean out a burr in the caster block, been supplied a couple of screws that are too long. Hardly anything that would stop you buying a kit. Just s few very minor things that take a few minutes to rectify. Nothing different than any other kit on the market.
Simple fact is the cars are amazing on track and light years ahead of the B44.3.

It's a 1st gen race kit,, only teething problems so far
As expected ��
My kit went together smoothly,, of course adjustments, lite sanding etc
are par for the course but a big percentage of readers of this thread
are experienced racers, it's not a major problem.
I haven't run mine yet but will do a full inspection, rebuild to make sure all is sweet
as I would with every new kit,
Relax guys,

Missing parts in the kits, the terrible design for the diffs with that tiny little clip, arms that would break if you looked at them wrong......

Then we all should have waited to buy the future improved version and went with a competitors car because those already have the bugs worked out??? Come on man. It doesn't matter what generation the car is. It needs to be as good or better than the others. It needs to compare to all of the other current cars. If its not as good or better, why buy it? I want the best. I'm going to give it a chance but I'm keeping a 22-4 2.0 just in case. Personally, I don't really care how the kit went together, that's irrelevant in terms of how the car actually performs. I need the car to be durable and capable of winning races. If I need to cut the car some slack because its a gen 1, I might as well buy something else (I'm hoping that's not the case).

Every new car that comes out from any manufacturer has its own set of problems/issues. Most are minor, like on the B64D. My kit went together flawless. Yea, if you slam your car into a wall, or hit a pipe nail you are going to break something, any car would. AE does a great job of taking care of anybody that does have an issue.

Hopefully any first gen issues will be addressed quickly and at no expense to the buyers.
For those who race with those who own the xray platform, fixing those issues quickly will go a long way so you don't get an impression of being a "poor mans xb4" based on part issues.
Looking forward to seeing this kit go. I am hoping the driver I know who says he ordered one will have it at the next race or the one following.

I'm followed this thread since day1 and it seems like there are more people experiencing problems with the car than are actually praising it.
Anyone who has hit a race with the car have anything to say? Experiences? Comparisons?
I read one person compare it to his b44.3 and say (something like) 'it's gonna be good when I get the setup down'

I guess I don't understand the gripes. These are mass-produced kits, there will always be some minor fiting and modification of a part or two, or a missing part here or there.
I'm an Associated guy, but I've built Yokomos and X-rays this year too, and BOTH manufacturers had assembly issues in their kits too. Get over it.
