Hi everybody....
Just taken the plunge and ordered the rocket kit from Road Track Race...
I have built a few kit cars in the past, but taken almost a ten year break to get married, new house, 2 children, work, etc, etc. and all the time my fingers have been itchy to get back into it.
I have spent a long time trawling the internet for various kits, but hand on heart, I had already made my mind up this was the car for me from when I first saw it at, I think an Autosport show as a Zonta.
The factory visit today was amazing!!! And any doubt's I had were soon washed away. The quality of the kits have so improved from my previous cars, and the guidance and help from RTR was brilliant. Thank you to the chaps over there, especially Paul, Liam and Ken. The test drive and factory tour from Paul was informative and done very professionally.
The final decision I have made (with RTR's advice) is to build a new vehicle rather than strip an old Focus as a donor, and I'm pretty sure that I will be scouring the forum for additional help.
I am building the car near Bishops Stortford, Essex, and if there are any complete or being built cars nearish by, then it would be a great help to assist with build.
I do hope to add information as I go, so as the purchases start I will try a keep the forum posts up to date....!
