Default Will someone please write a list of all the tools i need when i buy this. + input

I been in r/c since 83 when i was young. I had several on and off road. I'm buying an Mugen MRX-5 /1/8 scale. Yaaaaa, not today or tomorrow, but before the end of may. Traxx 4-tecs. i had all them. Not many options, and all the engines. 2.5 being my favorite. In the Traxx Tecs anyhow. My Hpi 1/10 rs4 was way better handling than Traxx. I'm pretty sure other would agree. I love my jato cause of the variety of ratios + 1,2,3 in seconds, boom different ratio. I bet the MRX5 can handle like an F1 does in real life, if dialed in correctly. I wonder, is changing ratio's on the Mugens, Serpents and all other kits (real race cars) easy and fast changing? .All input from weekend warriors or experienced competitive racers is appreciated. What tools, and is it hard to build one of these kits? I really want to know what tools i need, because when i buy this thing, i'm not skipping anything when i'm ordering. When it arrives here i'm not leaving till it's complete. lol. Can't wait!! Speaking of ratios, here's a picture of my 97 - 4.6 Cougar. Came with a 3.27 final drive, my brother and i are gonna put a 3.73 r/p in it this summer. Hey it'll feel like it has a bigger engine under the hood other than the puny 205hp lil 281ci v8 it has. Great fun car, but my goodness a bicycle has more power lol. Thanks all
