Pretty smooth build make sure you pretap the lower mount for the shocks.
The original pivot balls in the lower control arm lack tensile strength sheared 3 of 4 off (early kits?)
Racing on indoor asphalt with 21.5 fixed timing the car runs laps equal to the 4wd Gt2 cars.
Car looks awesome on the track.

THIS CAR IS EPIC!!!!!! Only issues with the build was with the ball studs that adjust toe in the rear. Hard to screw in due to limited space. Hex ball studs would be perfect. MAKE SURE YOU SOAK THE FOAM INSERTS FOR SHOCKS IN SHOCK OIL FOR AT LEAST AN HOUR. They won't rip if you soak them and use tweezers to gently slide them over the nipple. No other issues.
She handles like a dream. Light, beautiful chassis. This car is worth at least $400.

Schumacher Mission FT S2 1/10 Front Wheel Drive Touring Car Kit
First car I have ever built. Build went very easy. Was not missing any parts. All lubricants were included. Instructions were easy to follow.
Update: This car lasted one track day. I am not the best driver but I was thinking this kit would be stronger. I broke the front a-arm in the first touch of the wall. Not a show stopper as it was only cracked and still functioned. Jumped a chicane and in the process the little bit of the chassis that held the rear a-arm on broke completely off. This is not repairable and requires a whole new chassis to be purchased. I have been racing off-road and bashing off-road for years and this is the first time I have ever had a chassis crack and or break.
