Is that the first official AT release date? ...does it say what year?

Hondata says August now as well
We'll see when September rolls around....

What's up with not being able to tell folks what new products are in the works? What difference does it make on your end? It might buy some added loyalty for the long wait and perpetual delays on the s/c, not that it has bothered me personally all that much. Just curious.

We simply can't. We tried many years ago, but the issue is false or old information is passed. Lots of things change when going into production.

Does Honda tell you how their 2017 Fit RSR is going? I'm kidding.

Here is a recent example:
S2000 Kits- We did a soft release of information to the public, showing our prototype kit and prototype dyno graphs at 300whp (a weak area under the curve as well). This was about 3 months sooner than we should of. People were happy, but then started talking about how terrible the kit looked and how it could perform better.

Well, the production kit looks completely different from the prototype, with all of its nice CNC brackets, clean pieces, and OE lines.
Also, our S2000 kit makes 365whp (published on our site), and customers are seeing 380+whp. So it performs A LOT different.

Basically, we want to limit the amount of false or old information. We may rapid prototype and test things to test a concept. It may work, it may not. After that, we have to determine if the product makes it to production or not. Some projects get left at prototype and canceled.

So its not that we are mean, we just want to make sure the information that you receive about our product is 100% accurate.

going under your dads credit is a great way to guarantee approval tyler.

unless you guys have awesome credit, no major bank will be willing to extend a loan. it really is that hard. you are better off getting a credit card or lucking out and going to a credit union and scoring a decent rate.

and unsecured personal loans for toys such as this are hard to come buy, if the bank even still offers that. and there is usually a minimum that you have to borrow and don't even think about paying it back early cause they'll get that from you too.

credit cards or a place like citifinancial are good bets. at least you will have a bigger chance of getting approved even if the rate sucks.

go to a big bank and not only will you have a slim chance of getting it, but it'll be hit to your credit.

not with the way the economy is going. even people with a grade credit get denied all the time.

if the bank doesn't think they can pay back the money, it doesn't matter how much interest they charge. there is a major problem with saving money in america and everyone suffers from it. it stinks.

and if you can't save, they reason that you can pay back loans.
