The SV2 is a great kit for the money, works well on all surfaces, has great support and spares availability from the factory.
Regards,
James.

Hardly any at all, 5 deg castor blocks are a good buy. Medium flex wishbones if you crash a lot lol. Apart from that just spares that you would buy for any car

Pro's:

Good quality
Easy to build
Great support
Drives real nice
Looks great

Cons: (very minor ones)

You have to be careful which way round the diff goes when building
You need a metal-gear servo if you crash a lot like me!
Batteries are relatively slow to get out to charge

All in all, I'd recommend it to anyone.
