how did everyone go with their September issues? I'm glad to be able to put a wheel on at last even if it is only the left side.

Well couple weeks back issue 20 arrived in the mail.
So I'm just over 20% into the build.

I must say the forums are. A great source of info.
I have picked up a few important tips along the way.

Not yet rowdy.

I guess once I reach issue 25 I'll start.
On 20 at the mo. I'm hoping I don't have the issues with the bearings though.

Still dead in the water, waiting for issues 10 and 11, until such time that they decide to stop ripping off Australian modellers and supply the missing issues to the newsagents, that have back ordered them!!!!!

when u get to putting the front shocks together, start with the second shock that came later 'cuz it comes with extra washers for both of the front shocks. So then u wont have to pull the first shock apart which can pull the seal out of the bottom of the shock body

Yeah I'd heard something about that. Cheers ThumpUp

Think I'll wait till I get to 26 before starting

No worries,Mate.

I got my issues for November eventually. Bissett mags looked after me, but they had run out of issues 30 so I can't really put much together 'till I get the left side of the chassis plate

@Dylan i would recommend using Photo bucket free and easy to link photos on, plus it a good place to back up photos keep up the good work with the videos dude.

The UK will get their last delivery (Mark Webber Rb7) in January 2015 I believe. Feel free to correct me though. I've got another 5 issues in hand for December Drool so i put my diff together. Was anyone brave enough to try an oil in their diff rather than grease?
