CAT SX is here!
Well, the CAT SX is finally here for the general public. Got mine from MK Racing at a brilliant price.
I think MK have some (particularly NiMH) ones left and have got all the spares too. yay! |

Well I'm a retard. Schumacher have no normal front pulleys at the moment, they come next week. However they did have the option one-ways which I purchased so I could get it all built asap. Totally forgot about this fact and spent a good half hour looking for the missing part - oops.
Here is my progress so far (well I actually have top-deck and main belt on buy my photos came out naff, so going to redo those. I will do diffs in a minute and then onwards. Enjoy these few photos for now: |

So are the kits going out without front pulleys?

I don't think shipping a kit (no matter how fantabulous it is) without a key part is exactly stunning business practice. Then again maybe I'm just an old fuddy duddy. Oh well, back to the Ovaltine and Radio 4.

I'd have thought it would have been mentioned by one of the others who had the kit, I mean if you didn't have the one way you can't even complete it can you?

I apologise, I make it sound worse than it is.
Schumacher had the CAT SX's ready minus this front pulley. However they did have an option front one-way unit ready. So what they decided on, is asking people whether they wanted their SX with this option or wait a week for normal to come in. The option is better as it can be locked anyway, so two-in-one. I opted to have it early and get the extra. No-one or no shop was shipped a kit without knowing this, and making the choice. Shops were informed and MK made the situation crystal clear to me. Schumacher have not shipped anyone anything that won't work. Hope that clears that up. Anyway more photos from my build so far. Top deck on, diffs in, shock towers on, wing mount up (I am going to risk the stupid bands at first, if they break, my epoxy is coming out) and now I'm moving onto steering by looks of it: I would apologise for the quality of my photos as they are straight off my camera with no photoshoping (I will save that for the review) but to be honest I'm pretty chuffed with 'em. |

In my opinion the car is better with the one way roller so you are actually getting an upgrade.
