Brilliant!! I've been thinking about getting a Hornet for a while now, but reading the comments I'll be ordering one soon! My first experience with one was when I was about 8 or 9 and my brother owned one. I used to love that car, couldn't believe how quick it was compared to my own Nikko kids toys!! Well my brother finally grew out of it and gave to me for a birthday present one year!! Come to think of it, it's probably still in the loft at my parents house.
As mentioned, I agree the build process is half the fun and I can't wait!!
