Why don't they advertise? I think that chassis and body style would be a sure hit with the right marketing!

I don't know why they don't advertise more, I think its a great product. But then I did buy one.

Both the chassis and the body are Cyana. The chassis is round tube CDS and looks lovely. The whole kit is very competitively priced, I take some more photos showing the suspension and chassis as I strip the car down.

I've seen pics of the round tube chassis and it looks very well designed and strong which is important!
What diff does it take?

Rob seams to be open to making modifications to take most things. I went with a sierra diff because I had an LSD and the race cars have been built with a Duratec, rocket box and sierra diff.

i took some pictures of the chassis a couple of years back at Stoneleigh because it stood out from the crowd and put them on here. have to agree its one of the most aesthetically pleasing chassis i have seen on a kit car and there are some nice bits of functional design thrown in for good measure too.


im guessing he doesn't advertise much as a chassis that complex doesn't go together overnight :-)

The photos you posted, lead me to buy the kit from Rob. Thanks for posting them.

As I understand it Rob also offers a square tube chassis that will fit under the same body work I opted for this because I think it looks great and wanted a bit of a step forwards from the locost. Rob and his dad where great to deal with.
