building the 009 (first 7-8 hours [just the build])then puttin all my electrics from my 007 into the 009 and then going thru the 007 and puttin my sons electrics into it from his fk04 then doing the balanceing act and of course the setup board/tweek station my butt/legs ached all day sunday from sittin in a wooden kitchen chair for almost 31hours i took a smoke break about every 2 hours but it was all worth it sunday night
i havnt built a kit since 2001 (tc3 FT) and the xray kit was very clean to build all you had to do was put it together (99%) unlike the associated cut, sand, check build....
i wish the old color springs would work on it though with those springs it will not go below 6mm ride height

with the strap i got my car to balance @ 1433g
i will have pics posted soon in my thread about these straps/lipo protectors

also i would think it would work on many other cars that tape the battery in and H.K.S. hobbies has them cheaper
