Agreed, I begged and pleaded to get the proto over here and its doubtful that it will see US soil before the release.
Robin is supposed to bring it over here in April, but he said its doubtful.

NOTHING has been done to prove the car will be able to handle the dirt tracks I run on.

As for marketing backgrounds, I cant speak for the UK, but Shawn's and mine is pretty extensive. But you have to remember this industry has a very short attention span and does not hold on to long to anything. It does not work like the consumer vehicle market that HAS to release pics and prototypes years in advance. If we release pics of a car we better have a car within 30-45 days or there is a backlash from the public that the company cannot deliver, and its delay after delay and all of a sudden by day 50, I've lost half of my back orders and nobody likes Schumacher at all. I've seen this with other companies products many times.
As for more pics, I cant say what the UK will do, but Releasing more pics of a car that has no release date seems a bit absurd to me, there's to many parts of the car, that are already changing, and could change in the future.
