Congrats Mark. So another day gone without preparations for your bike outing?
That car looks to sweat to play ! Nice job.

only done 240km this week on the bike I'll cycle to my LHS tomorrow, I think - get paint, crystals and power extention cable (for battery) - that'll get me a good 120km I've certainly learnt a lot from building the 705 last year, so the building of the 710 was from my side much better - not to forget that everything just fitted perfectly! or maybe I'm just imagining that. I didn't realise how crap the 710 was until I read the G4 thread - seems you did a good job there D

and then my other LHS couldn't supply my two servos - waited two months for those, too Eventually I gave up the the LHSs and ordered the motor and servos from www.the-border.com - all was delivered within a couple of weeks 
Bike riding is more like a drug than fun - need to do it, but I'm not sure if I enjoy it or not

The birth...it's a boy!
All, I'm now the proud father of a new born. Just minutes ago it came to this world. A healthy young 710, weighing about 1.5kg & 41cm in length. Here is a picture of him on the operating table.
