Yeah, in Blackburn which is really handy for me.
RCM have recently got new molds that are now very clean. The old mold which I've got required more work but both are an excellent shape in my opinion. The chassis is similar to an RMC with shortened Jag front and rear ends and weighs about 1200kg when finished. At the Nats, RCMs have won trophies but then again so has every other kit manufacturer. Customer service is excellent, no question goes unanswered. The only thing to consider is that RCM is a hobby business. The owner has a day job so things do take longer than a full time manufacturer. The kit is also very hands on but then again it's also cheaper and frankly it isn't too hard to do. To date I think they're about 90 kits on the road.
I'd suggest to trek up to the Nats before you buy and then you can get up close to all the different kits and suss out the differences between them. The Nats are just around the corner, end of September.
