Like someone said, it's like a fill up in discount. Whats that? You mean I'm giving away 43 tanks of gas?
That's how it looks from my side, but I'm not complaining.

Maybe we can work it out on a Saturday and I can put them in for you.
No promise on the tab though, I still break one every so often.

It's not if I'm warm or not it's just the car. I've gotten pretty good at it but I did break one a couple of weeks ago. There is no telling which ones will fail.

Did I ever tell you my son Russell is the lead solid modeler for Lucusfilms?
I think he knows all the Jedi. I'll check and see if he knows number 54.

Nope, I don't think his visa is valid anymore as I haven't seen him this neck of the woods for awhile. I'm not sure what you could bribe him with. I don't really care about that **** so I never bother to ask. You might be better off just threatining him with a light saber. When you do I'd like to watch.

Add me to the "on-the-fence" group; give me a couple months and I'll have a little extra cash to spend, thanks RP!

Well in a few months... The GB will surely be over and they will be available for full retail. The only thing that is holding it up now is RP's recent move and the fabricating of them, which should be done shortly.

All the shafts will be done today. We have to drill them and press in the pivot pin, which I think are ready. Then we have to make the polymer parts. One of those is a two process fourth axis part and takes time.
Anyway, we should have shifters by weeks end. Then we have to QC them and package them. Therefore I think we can ship them begining of next week.

I'll listen to Vice Grip for advice as to when we should start taking money. Then when do we close the sale? Since the close depends on recieving a certain number and when we start shiping there has to be a number of days in between. So we might be close to start the wheels turning for the final list.

I am glad that so many of you would like this shifter...

It has been sooooo good to me.

RP, Hymee mailed me the cream bottom cup 2 months ago and I got my neighbour Gomez to install it for me. It kind of reduce the rattling noise at high rev.

I wonder if the engine mount is moving so does the tranny so it is making the noise.

So do we just wait for instructions from Vice or RP for the GB, or do we have to go to the axial flow website to purchase the SS??

As low as it goes. As soon as Vise^Grip gets the program in the website you guys can start sending money. I think what is holding that posting on the website is me supposed to give him some sort if code but I don't remember what. So you can't do it yet. The ball is in my park.
