Where are you from? My LHS sells them for 420euro's but I'm not sure if there are any left overs. They have a webshop, but it's in Dutch unfortunately.

I've got my car. Unfortunately it's 11:45pm over here, so I'll start building tomorrow.

Can someone confirm if the basic carpet setup is correct were it tells you to run your front diff in the up position and the rear diff in the down position.

From what I understand, kits bound for the US have not been shipped from Slovakia yet

Built one last night...........motor mount better than I thought (still have some reservations) servo post better than I thought, bumper worse than I thought, won't bother with that.

Overall I can see some big improvements over the T3 12 what it like on the track , time will tell.

I'm assuming the bumper reservation is over the fact it won't push against the bulkhead in a crash like the previous version did?

its very very low and very very soft. Not sure the extra risk is worth any potential advantage.

I actually prefer the hard/heavier bumper on the front of my car as it calms the front end down no end so I will be sticking to that anyway.

Don't tell me that!

I hope it isn't so! That would mean 2+ weeks from the time its shipped from over the pond + processing at stormer + shipping time from stormer to my house.

yeah, I'm going to attempt to forget that I ordered one, so when it finally arrives, it will be an awesome surprise.

At least I know that when nexusracing gets them in, it will be at my door a few days later. I get stuff faster from them than orders from a hobby shop that's less than 30 minutes drive from my place.

How much less does it weigh from the standard T3 version? (not the optional heavy item)
