It did sound funny, I posted it then looked at it, but felt too lazy to fix it.


With the stripping second, it's more a case of you feel a bit gutted when quite frequently someone will say something like "I don't really want to buy the 5 till they fix the stripping issue", or likewise people will fear it while yet to even strip one, or strip them from lazy setup then blame the car.

It was one of those things that spread like wild fire after the cars release, and people jumped all over it, which I think hurt the sale of what is a very good car.

'Real' issues with the car got sort of almost ignored right away, like the clutch end stopper being drilled off center, fuel tank posts with the holes not drilled in them, that steering servo saver plastic slight misfit (seriously 'do not' glue your saver), and one gear alignment issue that did exist was it hard to get the pinions out far enough to 'fully' mesh the spurs, Mugen should have included some washers for behind the flywheel (I just got some of those).
