    Everyone is a dealer these days...... but nobody wants to be a "stocking" dealer.

    what are you looking for exactly??? I can put out some feelers to the few people I know but you have probably looked or been in touch with everyone but you never know. you may have a better chance at hitting the power ball jackpot though.

    This might be a long shot but, when Nigel was racing with the Outerlimit boat, Dustin was a part of the race team. It might be worth calling Mike Fiore at Outerlimits. He might be able to help You.

    I feel your pain on the parts situation, as most of you know I took over The Bravo Shop and Bmax and I have been amazed at how big business is run. I have been waiting on the foundry to pour my castings for 6 months and I gave up on them 3 weeks ago and moved it to a smaller foundry and parts are now in production. The old place was on a 4 day week do to lack of work, at least that is what the bean counter told me, the shop guys told me not enough time in the week.

    Stay on there back and keep hoping for the best, Can't wait to see your BT in person.

    was just discussing with someone today that smaller companies are a better way of doing business sometimes..they should have a much better control on quality and a one on one from the owner to the buyer for the most part. If they run things rite it should also be a less expensive way as well.

    still can't believe he's waiting on this stuff

    I feel bad for you waiting on these parts. Your boat looks amazing and everyone is ready to see it run! Good luck.

    I feel for black thunder also. I bet they want to see their creation come together and run. Sucks for everyone.

    May not be a bad idea to have a spare core after what you've gone through to get what you have.

    As far as getting that last case, its doesn't take long to machine it..... I have seen lots of people getting things before you.... it doesn't make sense. Have you talked with Dustin personally? That might not be a bad idea.
