the huge gap from the lack of presence of the rubber strips.

hi mate. i crashed it going down a back lane, it was wet and the suspention was lopsided so that didnt help and i span and hit a tree.

it was good handling apart from the leaking suspention. id recomend getting it individualised makes the suspention stiffer and much better handling

get on www.metropower.co.uk some good stuff on there :)

good luck with the car mate :thumbsup:
