Having spoken to darren and met him. I would put every trust in him. Just you wait GTS will be back better than ever, not that it's actually going anywhere. So not to worry people. Good luck darren, i have also offered him my help anyway i can. Perhaps other people can do this too, instead of listening the hearsay and worrying about whos gonna supply their parts.

Quote due to some personal problems with one of our partners. Families have to come first in peoples lives.

Must say this man is a prince amongst thieves. Support Darren through this bump. How many times have we heard how companies have taken deposits and never delivered, shut up shop, Bullshitted and knowingly sold shoddy goods.

Darren you will still get the order for the tank when YOU are ready to take it.
Must say 10/10 for being straight up with the lads. So many companies I try to order from up our way give some lame excuses for not delivering.

All the best

Contender for the longest sentence to appear on the forum???

All of the chassis/kits look the same as they are basically all copies of the original 7.....

Triton now has nothing to do with Mac#1 afaik. But GTS and Triton are now linked....each using eachothers parts hence the GTS/Trition stand at Stoneleigh.

Eventually someone will probably be able to help more than me

Cheers
David

Take a look at a thread called 'Why are kit car companies so ignorant' for a list of good manufacturers and the relevant comments....ill try to find the topic....

Here it is...

http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/viewthread.php?tid=13533

I must say however that GTS/Triton should get all the support that they deserve. From what people say the quality of their products is fantastic...etc etc

Why not try MK. They'll have everything you need to build one. Chassis can't be too dissimilar either.

You could try MK.

But its heavier, doesn't have DeDion, costs more and has less detailing.

Kind regards,

Darren
