Pretty sure they all will be. Schumacher sent me mine directly I think so I may not get mine until next week, not sure about that yet.

Yeah it looks like the parts are really similar, even on Schumachers site a lot of the suspension components are the same.

The front belt is walking off the layshaft pulley. I'm thinking if I flip my front diff it will center it. It doesn't walk all the way off, but about half way and the plastic guide won't stay on to hold it. A little CA can fix that, but it's still not right.

Hrm, weird. I'm not having that problem.
Outside of missing a few parts and the blocks/steering arms issue, my kit was good. It was amazing to drive for the one pack I ran. I can't wait to get the aluminum bits installed and really put some backs through it.

Finally got a race my SX2 all night.
First off, I'll say I like it a lot more than my B44. It recovers so much faster when you get a little out of shape, it's very smooth, not so twitchy, and much easier to clear the triples at the track where I race it.
I'm still coming to grips with getting it setup the way I like (like any new car) but I'm already faster than I was with my B44 by about .3 to .5 a second.
I added the rear sway tonight and really liked the way it brought the car off the corner, also picked up the front sway after driving Ron's car with it and plan on putting that in tonight.
All in all I have no complaints other than I need more track time!
Thanks again to Ron and everyone at Speedster Hobbies/The Clay Pit Raceway. Awesome track, great shop and unparalleled customer service!

Nicky wants a Cougar instead of a Cat so I'll grab one of those if you still have them. I'll definitely be in this week for it.
Thanks!

Anyone else got their Cat SX2 yet?
I've finally had to race nights with mine and absolutely love it! It's an amazing car. My Top 5 and Top 10 laptimes are down 1.9 sec over my B44 in just two race weekends.
I had Jim at WED do a body for me, it's on the way, can't wait to get it! Here's a shot:
Also, kudos to Schumacher for taking care of everyone that had the faulty pivot blocks with free aluminum replacements!

What kind of surface are you running it on?
