bladecutter... as for the imaginary shortage of metal i suggest you cruise the srt8 jeep forums. they also have a group buy as does the mustang guys and everyone is waiting for the metal for the lsd. maybe you could know a bit more about what your talking about before spreading baseless rumors. oh wait you aren't even buying a wavetrac , how could i think you would know whats going on?
I know what's going on because I read the thread just like everyone else on here can.

You guys have been sitting on your thumbs for MONTHS, plain and simple, for your company to get enough metal to produce the product you want so bad. There's no baseless rumors in stating that.

The shop doesn't want to purchase the metal from their supplier until they have enough orders to buy it in bulk, to make it more profitable to do so. Their supplier doesn't want to sell the metal to them until their is enough quantity requested to make it worth their while to ship them the metal, and direct it away from other purchasers.

I have more than enough contacts inside aerospace engineering to know that if a certain contractor wants a certain amount of metal, no matter how large or small, they can get it in a matter of days. Waiting months for a lower quality metal that doesn't require the massive amounts of paperwork like TZM, and its required chemical tolerances for certain applications does, is just a bit much.

I can understand why they want to wait to produce the parts.
Its all about economics.

But, some people have grown tired of waiting, as you can plainly see from Waldig's post. He wants to get his car racing, as he should.

As for my not buying one, I have no need for it as I don't own a Crossfire.
Bat doesn't need one either, because she's not running her car under conditions where having the rear end you guys want is needed to put the smile on her face.

You guys need to rear end to keep your car from having massive failures while launching in your 1/4 mile racing moments.

I understand why you guys want to have the product.
I understand why the various companies involved are delaying making it available.
And I know there's nothing you can do about it, unless you are willing to pay more money, to get someone to order the metal sooner, which is right where economics comes in, one last time.

Just because I'm not on your super secret special list, doesn't mean I don't know what's going on, 32crazy!

BC.
