Whoa whoa whoa, let's all chill out with my post. Not once did I call this a bad move by them I said it was disappointing. I find it disappointing that this car has been about for a while now and that the team drivers got them a few days after announcement but yet the parts were not ready for general release. The car doesn't use that many new bits and most are available as spare parts apart from (last night at least) gear box top shocks front. Another disappointing aspect was that most found this out through a model shop email rather than schumacher themselves. I was really hoping mine would be for the regional next week as my KC has a bent chassis and didn't want to order one.

I have an excellent solution for you...... buy a LD one as its will fit your kc! im sure you know its in stock. |
Whether new parts or current parts I imagine Schumacher expect to sell hundreds if not more of these cars I'd be very surprised if they keep that amount of stock in spares, so I'm sure what ever part their having issues with couldn't just be replaced in the hundreds off the shelf.

Yes I know it fits and yes have seen it in stock but will not be buying it. |

Right so that's my idea blown apart. Although that does mean they are happy to sell a spare they were not happy to put in the kit:confused: as when I looked yesterday that was the only piece not listed.
|
I wouldn't be so desperate to get hold of the new laydown. I've seen a few guys running the car and were really struggling. Some even resulted in putting a KC back end on the car. Seems there's some serious setup work to be done.
Anyway its disappointing to wait longer. Schumacher's customer service has always been excellent. |

Just let the guys get the part up to quality and release it. |

I think its a good thing that they pulled the date back, people would shout more if there was a bad part in the kit,
Run my KC in L1 rear end spec last week at motor pos 4 and it felt a lot more driveable after a few set up tweaks on high grip EOS type carpet, not sure I would gain hugely by doing to the LD |
Very few people know how much of a nightmare it is developing a new product.
If just one minor component is missing or wrong, the whole kit has to be held... Just because parts have come come in to the correct condition previously, doesn't mean every batch will be the same... QC exists to catch exactly this type of issue, so I'd say Schumacher have acted responsibly in being honest about this... yes its a shame, but I'd imagine they are doing everything they can behind the scenes to get these kits out the door... After all the last thing they want is excess unsalable stock sitting in their warehouse!! |
