Finally got a tyre on one my 13x6 revo's so I could test fit it today- the are spaced more at the front so no arch problems despite being wider than my last set but they are touching the shock on the back so looks like a spacer 15mm? will be required. But at least I can check all the arch clearances so I don't destroy the tyres/arches on its maiden voyage this time! Pic!

one resprayed and another arrives- double trouble BIS style!!

Took the drivers seat out, didn't realise it just slides off the rail - I was looking for nuts and bolts to undo !

Will be having the drivers seat cloth material repaired next week, as its torn on the seam like most.

Filled the gearbox with oil despite the stuck filler plug.
