Hi man!
Did you order all your parts from across the pond or have you found a UK dealer?
I just got a shipment from RRP. I also got my Holmes motor from rc-welt.eu Pretty quick delivery too and no import duty or handling.

Been having similar problem, been ordering stuff Amain, fairly quick delivery but had to pay TAX but no import. Had a bit of luck with ebay sellers also. Fusion Hobbies and RadshapRC are worth a look. RadshapeRC in Birmingham even have a dedicated crawling wall in store, although i have never been (yet)

I'd have ordered more from amain for my build if I'd have known I wasn't going to get stung.... but then I guess I would have been, if I did :(

Look forward to another UK build

Looking sweet so far Vegas.
How are you planning running the proline shocks in your original post? appears to be two different lengths?
