I've heard from a little 'birdy' that the 05 flash capability was finished and especially for you racers. Call Jim Tanner or Jim Langer over there at Racing Beat and tell them of your dilemma.

the lack of a product suggests there is nothing to gain from having one .....

on 3/23/2007 i got a reply to this very question to RB...
Your question was forwarded to Jim Mederer, Racing Beat's co-founder and chief engineer, for review. The following is his reply to your inquiry:

Sorry for the delay. We are still waiting for the final quote from the flange casting shop. Once we receive it, we should have the flanges in about 2 months, and the final prototype header sbout 2 months after that. I apologise for the delay, which was caused in large part by a design change in the flange.

I call BS on that reply. I work at a manufacturing plant that deals with castings, patterns, foundaries, maching, etc.. blah blah blah on RB for that response.

Sorry - just had to vent on that reponse
