I will be able to make a better determination on price once the mold is completed and the amount of material that goes into it. I should be recieving a phone call shortly to discuss some of this stuff with the manufacturer.

Well I got to see this in person at the track and it is a very nice setup.

I was trying to decide between the Lotek and the Racing Beat but didn't like either one really. The Racing Beat is too low and I use that outlet for other things. The Lotek is... well it's ugly in my opinion and you have to cut a hole in the dash to install it. This one, however, is perfect for me.

I'm definitely in on getting one of these as soon as they are available for sale. Thanks for you work in bringing this to the masses!

Do you take out the speaker or leave it in? I guess I never noticed there was even a speaker there, lol!

lol... they have a project infront of this one but it should be off the ground shortly...

I don't believe you can run the wires and keep the speaker but you might be more determined then I am.

major intrigue and interest on my part. I've hated nearly every damn gauge pod ive seen on the market, for one reason or another. This looks nice.

They are hoping to have something for me to look at this weekend (I am trying to keep the costs down for everyone so they are putting the mold together between jobs)... which would mean we could possibly see something soon. I will post pictures when I get the prototype.

I appologize for the wait and have not anticipated this myself but as I said I want to get these made as reasonable as possible with the highest quality possible. Luckly the owner is a friend and trying to do the best he can for me and all you guys.

Well I know its been a while but I should have the prototype sometime next week. Let me tell you from what I have seen through pictures this thing is going to be fantastic. Everyone get your money together because you will like what you get.
