change of plans

unfortunately, i have to move the target date of completion for another year. funds will be used as down-payment for the new house we bought. i'll use the time to ponder on a different goal for the colt - lancia delta s4 group b rally setup.

quick release hoax

unfortunately, the quick release seller was a hoax... the purchase didn't push through because of unknown reasons.

i was there at 9am and informed him that i will be waiting. one hour passed and not a single message or ring. i phoned him at 10am to tell him i cant wait any longer because of my tight schedule. and guess what - his phone is turned off.

i waited the whole day for him to contact me. there might be a good reason for that. and still - no message at all.

early monday morning, i checked his ad and the whole ad was deleted. what an experience.

quick release: shiny and almost new

just found the quick release this morning. the price is a quarter of a brand new unit. even if it's second hand, it's only used for a day. so, technically, it's new. the last two quick release adapters i was aiming to buy are sparco's: colored blue and red and priced at three thousand pesos a set. so, for an unbranded unit that costs 1500 pesos, i just have to test it for it's reliability. i can't wait for sunday.
