i started around noon and i am still on the first step which is building the ball diffs (not hard but time consuming because of all the little balls (hehe))

Ho stuff. 2.5 mm chassis and 8mm?
I can tell you're going to have fun with this once you're done correct? Or is it just all for collect.

Do we share the same dads? Mine tends to come home with random stuff, tosses it onto my desk, and tells me to put it together/figure out what the hell it is.

My dad bought me one of these several years back, we assembled it together and I drove it a lot.
I pulled it out of storage a few summers ago, after using it a bit the piece that holds the motor in place broke.
I never got around to seeing if I could find a replacement

I'm actually so loving jealous right now, that looks like the coolest activity ever.
Like seriously I'd enjoy making it way more than using it
