Helloooo everyone
Great news, I'll be at EPR to support Craig Collinson who after testing the car has decided to run it at the nationals. After EPR I'll be coming up to sheffield to collect all the parts and will start sending the kits as soon as payment is made. I'll see some of you at EPR I guess. Fabs |

have fun at EPR, guys.
If there wasn't some kind of watery stuff blocking my way, I'd come over and pay a visit.

I have been lucky enough to try both Fabs cars on a track and I have been quite impressed.
It was on the Montigny track which is now really rutted, with almost no grass left and gobs of holes. Yet the sanctioned tyres are Minispikes, so it's a real challenge to obtain a good car on such a blown-out track. The alloy-chassis ZX5 was really well setup, sure-footed and quick. But the most impressive was the RB5 Mid which has gobs of traction, good turn-in and most of all awesome stability. Future owners won't be disappointed, this car is a winner! Well done Fabien

The main gear shaft of my RB5 appears not being 100% straight anymore after the last race I participated in.
It's only minor but I would like to change it nevertheless just to be sure. Will the kit come with a new one, or does it use the original one. The Kyosho-partnumber of this shaft is UM-518 if I'm not mistaken. Does there exist anothe one, maybe stronger?

Hi Ludo,
Yes that's the correct part number, and I'm waiting on a couple of these to arrive as well, one for my RB5-SP2 (which has a longer layshaft which I cannot use) and one for my prototype mid, on which the teeth have worn out after 2 years of use and abuse. There isn't one provided in the kit as it comes on the RB5, and there isn't a stronger one either, I've never seen one bend to be honest ! |

Now for the week end's result,
Craig made the B final at EPR, which considering the fact that it was only his second time there, and his first meeting with the car, is a good result. Craig seemed happy with the way we were heading setup wise, we were making changes every round and he seemed to like the car more and more. Still not quite where he'd like it to be, but coming to a national with only one test day in the bag, wasn't going to be easy anyway. I got in myself and made the F final, and finished 5th from 9th on the grid, which is pretty much equalling my best national result. Not bad for someone who'd driven up from Paris overnight and had 2 hrs sleep, one in the car and one on the ferry! No doubt that had I been a little fresher and had I had time to prepare the car in the week, I'd have done better. I'm now in sheffield and will start going to pick up the produced parts from the different places I had them made at. |

Hi everyone,
All of you who had preodered a car will receive a request for money via paypal. As some of you forgot to select that they were paying the fees when they sent the deposit, I hadn't received the correct amount for them, so the request is for a total of GBP 200 + postage for those who need it posted. Postage for the UK will be GBP 5.50, next day delivery, tracked and insured. One last thing, can everyone make sure the paypal fees do not get deducted from what I receive, thank you> |

haven't seen that paypal-request yet, Fabs. I assume it's for one of the next days?
any idea about what I should add as for shipping costs for Belgium?

Hi Guys
Was lucky enough to see some development ideas/plans/pictures/CAD etc at EPR this weekend with Nick Caro and Craig Collinson. Fabs went into detail of how he saw everything working out. And all I'll say is watch this space as I think in the right hands the car will be awesome and a difference between one final and being two higher. GREAT WORK FABS - KEEP US INFORMED J |

Lol
I have only just picked them up! Yours will be in the post early next week mate! As for the manual, I'm going to do a review, was supposed to do it with Jimmy this week but a lot of things went in the way. But it'll be on oOple nonetheless. It is however fairly straightforward. Craig and I had the first runs on the production cars and both of us were very happy, the car feels pretty much the same as my own prototype, and according to craig it feels better than prototype number 2 which Nathan ran as well. Roll on tomorrow ! |
