With that in mind I have broken the seals of the kit and started to put it together and on the same time comparing parts with the 2007 MotoGP Racers archive. The result is stunning and the parts fits like a glove with very little waste material to be removed on resin parts. There are differences on the chassis between the kit and the 2007 book - but the transkit is for the 2008 version, so I'll look forward to the 2008 racers archive. The resulting model will be fully wired with the contents of the kit and you really have to be a top of the line MotoGP mechanic to be able to see the differences in the engine I guees. It is not like a Ferrari versus a cosworth engine in difference anyway. I have seen a lot of transkits in my time - from the soft resinblob to high tech extraordinaire - but this one is surely on the very top of the pile. High price - possibly - but you'll get everything you need inside the box apart from carbon decals. Yet again a stunner from Top Studio!
