My only disappointment is, I loved the black one with it being a complete replica of the BTCC one but the new red livery I like too.

Nor, y u no like Hot Wheels?!

After looking at it again the hot wheels thing isn't really doing it for me either. maybe change it up with a big mg logo that would look much better

but it already has a big one down the bottom....?

Every time I'm up at Dreadnought I've noticed your engine was still there. I was starting to wonder what was going on, it's sat still almost as long as mine has :laugh:

The engine is fully wrapped up, so it should be ok

Good idea but just to play devils advocate you won't have much up with the black one, these are good cars all the trouble is vis, clutch and thermostat related.
Brakes might need a clean off but I think that is all which or a track car is ideal

I know what you're saying Ross but I dont want to pay out almost as much for the engine change which includes buying the oil filter pipes, only to have other hassles. Criag has run in the red one and I know its requirements to be perfect for the track. Plus the price was good and I dont want to waste any more time with plans.

This way, I have a working ZS that is ready to race which was the whole point and to get the site together at some meets that involve more than just chatting.

Roll on March :)

yeah I suppose it's always easier to start with a car that runs.

Nothing to stop you swapping the engine yourself if you know the new one is ok, it's not that hard to do a like for like change later on... or are you selling the black one?

If you were wanting to be really drastic you could swap over all the body panels from the black car and just get the roof wrapped black :laugh:

Smokey 14-01-12 07:10 PM

lol, ace idea Ross, only thing is, the rear quarter panels would be a nightmare surely?!?!

Maxxed_Ross 15-01-12 05:26 AM

crap, forgot about them
