They didnt make it in the morning, they made it in the afternoon. And I saw them with my own eyes.

We are shipping this shipment all out of the CA warehouse. The IL orders started today and will finish in the morning. The CA orders start in the morning and finish when they are done.

TLR is at Horizon CA just as an FYI. We are a brand of Horizons.

Horizon has three Warehouses, two primary.

Ontario, CA and Champaign, IL.

The trucks were at the ONT warehouse mid day yesterday. Most will ship from there, so you shoudln't have to wait for the IL warehouse to get them before you get them I would assume.

Should I expect my LHS to have them today? They are a hour from Ontario, Ca.

Trying to plan my day so I can go get one.

According to Ryan's post they sent out Ill orders last night and finished them off this morning. CA orders are going out today so being Friday just depends on if you have Sat delivery if you see them this weekend.

I bought a 22 and a scte in the 1st shipment. Both had less than spectacular results with quality etc. Should I hold off on the 22t?

The 22T learned from the 22 as far as the diff nut. I think that was the only real issue with teh 22 that I can think of. The 22T will come with the GenII diff nut as well as HD rear hub bearings which last a lot longer then the stock bearings in the 22. I don't see any real issues with this as much of the rest of the car was proven out with the 22. That is my opinion. You can wait if you want but that is just time you won't get to play with your new truck!

Is the Gen2 diff nut better than the optional aluminum diff nut holder?

The GenII nut is like the old molded in XXX-CR diff nut or like the AE one for that matter. The problem with the first one was the plastic was too soft to hold the nut from spining. With the nut molded into the plastic it works great. If you like to just replace the mini lock nut the alum holder is awesome. I have used both with great success so either option is fine. I can't say one is better then the other personally.

It'll be good to see the 22T's hit the market and bring the stadium truck class back around in my area!

+1! Really hoping ST makes a comeback. Such a fun Mod class! But really all we can do is get these trucks, make them look good, and do our part. The others will prolly come around, especially if we're out there running ours and having a good time.
