Grrrr.... I've been waiting for 2 weeks now for my damned parts to come in. Everyday I rush home really quickly and open up the mailbox only to find nothing important; parent's bills, junk mail, and other stuff that makes no difference to me. So I throw it all away in the shredder. I'm becoming impatient. If the mailman doesn't start getting me the goods, he and mr. brass knuckles are going to have a loooooooooong talk.

Man.....you think you have it bad......I have been without my RB240 for 2 months now. I finally have the time to get the money order sent out for my new motor and I pay 40 bux for overnight shipping and they attempt delivery at f'n 9 A.M. Now I won;t have my motor by friday, and that means no meet on sunday:( But I feel what you mean. I have parts I am tired of waiting for and I have no running car right now.

I ordered a Manual Boost controller, and Intake kit dealy, a HKS turbo timer, and a boost gauge. It cost me about $175 all together. I want it NOW! WAAAAAAAAAH! Man, I gotta go find Mr. Brass knuckles. Today I went home to check the mail and it's one of those communial mailboxes that everyone has to walk to. Anyway, there are these 2 big slots where big packages go and there are keys. The mailman puts the packages in the slots and then takes the key out and puts it in your mailbox. Well I came home and saw that one of the keys were missing, I got all excited and ran into the house to get the mail key. I opened up the mailbox and it wasn't in my box. That REALLY got me angry. Ugh... and these package slots are huge, I am able to fit a 4 year old in them. Don't ask how I know that....

Call them and tell them you going to send them a mail-bomb. Make a BIG one and send it U.P.S. Ground. That way, by the time it gets there they'll have forgotten about it and ....well......:firedevil

theres a lesson to be learned here: order parts 2 months before you think you need them or before you want them

Damn it! That makes me want to stab a mailman and send his ears to his kids! Wait... are the mailmen to blame here? Or are they just crazy?
