Sounds like the factory is scrambling to get a batch of the new ho's out before the New Years shut down, but they are running out of time fast.
I beleive they did a little more tweaking to the porting before they were finally totally happy, which set things back a little bit.
Nice to know they are serious about getting it completely right before they start production. I would rather wait another few weeks, than have something rushed out that's not quite 100%. Anticipation is half the fun

It's the dead of winter here. I race short course oval to keep from going nuts.
I don't know if it's because these are electric guys, or because it's carpet. But, for the most part, these fellas are much better sportsmen on the track than the nitro off-road racers. Yeh, there are a couple cavemen that think my truck is just a berm, but it's a much lower percentage than during summer.

Yup, I always let the guy with the shotgun in his pick-up's back window go 1st.

( I've got 2 siblings living in the lone star state )

atleast in Texas you can carry your own protection and not go to jail for it, amen to that!! Here in cali. even with a carry permit your still suspect. But if your sitting on the corner wit yur 40 deelin hell they don't care. Why? can't get money from em. But if you have a job/house/car your going to PAY for breaking the law. I have said this for years-Start the DEATH PENALTY with no 15-20 year wait. You'll see the crime rate go way down. Take em out firing squad or hanging. No $25,000.00 plus lethal injection.
