Lesro told us on Thursday that their package is in U.K. but that they have no idea when it will be delivered. How they know that I don't know, but they used their USPS tracking number to talk with U.K. postal. USPS ttracking stops when the package leaves the US.

So it's strange. U.K. postal acknowleges the package is in U.K. but no idea of delivery. Hmmm...

Lesro ordered some other small parts in a separate order. Those were sent in an airmail letter and arrived in four days.

Problem is that USPS is by far the cheapest way to ship. Their price is less than half of UPS, FedEx, DHL and usually their service is just as fast. Of course Lesro must pass along the cost of shipping, so your prices are lower this way But when there's a delay, no telling what will happen. So, we pay our money and take our pick...

Why? Are you going to do something because I'm sure your the first ever person to have had something delayed/lost by UK customs and are angry about it, yet customs is still around and will probably be around long after you.

My order from X Factory arrived yesterday so looks like customs are starting to get through their backlog now.

I wondered if you had yours in for yesterday Carl?

I realise Southport is not your usual (indoor) track but did you make any setup changes specifically around changing the tranny? I'm sure I didn't really, it was just better everywhere anyway.

Your set up sheet says you had a spacer under the front of the gearbox only.

Is that right??

If you have the new gearbox and the new rear tower you should have the same spacer front and rear!!!
