Some cars have a separate brake controller to apply front brakes only to do burn outs to warm up the tires before the run. Of course to have fun if you can afford the tires.😁

Ah, makes sense. Considering that I'm crossing my fingers that I can make it through this winter on "all season" tires (as I don't have the cash for snow tires), I try to conserve the rubber I have :P

Ouch.

With this being the internet and all, I never know if I'm dealing with a big company or some dude in a garage. As such, like in this case, I just assume they are a small-ish company and give them some leeway.

But, if they are on vacation or something, and knew they were going to be, they should indicate something like that on the page. Like, "Due to holiday schedules, items will not be shipped between 12/26/14 and 1/15/15". Or in an automated email.

Also, if I were them I wouldn't be surprised that folks who are ordering a throttle controller also have impatient personalities :P

I tried that myself a couple days ago asking a question and I have not heard back. Maybe they have had bad weather or shut down because of sickness, I know the flu is really bad here.

If I don't get it this during this pay period (in the next two weeks), I'll be kicking myself. Not that I made myself short financially with this purchase, but coming right out of the holidays it'd be nice to have that cash buffer for another two weeks if it's all the same. :/

Well if you guys have kept up on the threads, you would know that this is normal for Vitesse, they hardly respond to inquires. If they have harnesses in stock you should have it around a weeks time. If they harnesses are not in stock then as soon as they come in they will ship. I understand your frustration regarding the lack of communication. However as of now everybody who has ordered one has gotten it.

I ordered mine the Saturday before Christmas and it came last Friday. Be patient. Shipping has been a PITA lately for most. Everything for my business has been delayed as well. Sometimes its unavoidable.

I finally broke down and decided to be like everyone else and get one. I ordered from Apex yesterday and received an email back saying that they had just run out of stock. I was told by Victoria that she cant order any more right now from Vitesse because they are closed till Jan 10th.
