I'd apologize for the delay if I thought it would make you feel better. I'd rather make sure it's right the first time and eat some pride and agreeing that we missed a due date over shipping them not knowing they were 100%.

Some things are just out of our hands at times, as much as we don't like it. We want you to have these as much or more than you want them, trust me. I'd like nothing more than to have a happy warm home for all of the RX8's.

I'll try and take a photo of the huge boxes on their way out.

Thanks for the update...I agree w/you completely w/getting it right the first time... even if it means a small delay. We are all really excited to be getting this new product

That sounds great! However I would think it should be 100% before anyone starts posting dates. Just my .02:)

Cwallis, I agree with you. We knew it was 100%. Testing at Silverstate was just the icing on the cake. There was a few failures from some other manufactureres and there's really nothing like race testing at an event.

LOL.... You dont work in product development do you.

Try telling a marketing person they arent allowed to advertise something untill its 100% ready. NEVER happen. At least with the marketing people I work with. They are generally busy running around writing checks with their mouths that my ass has to figure out how to cash in the end. Just the nature of business in general, its not just the RC business.

That is very true. It's not so much marketing but our own stubborness!

We refuse to let something out half ass. We understand some people are irritated and upset, we'd apologize if it helped.(we know it won't).

You don't see all the companies out testing at huge real world events like Silver State do you!

As of yesterday, A-main did not even know when they were going to get them.

That sucks, I was really thinking I would be getting mine this week. I guess I will be putting the MMM Nue back in.

We should see these trickle in early next week(motors and combos). Initial supplies will be limited(from everywhere), but should stabilize over the next couple weeks as Tekin ramps up production. :)
