Personally I think it's well worth building from a kit. You learn as you go how it works and are more likely to be able to work out what's happened if you have an issue.
Yes I do, the only place I go. Got the pub there that does good food and there is a smallish track that suits 1/8 scale in my opinion but there is a group that run Losi 5ives round it.
Thank you but they will be too big, just had a look on their site.
I've been measuring up and not got a lot of room. I'll have to work out what will fit, gonna be more of a pain than i realized.
