I've ordered from them before , I think the biggest problem with alot of these places is that you order from them, they order from the manufacturerer and have them ship it to your house, or it's shipped to them and then shipped to you.

Exactly what happend to me i ordered the Racetronix pump and took 4 weeks to come, because they ordered from manufacture to send to me. They told me they don't keep the pumps in stock.

Maybe they will chime in this thread and tell us whats going on with your pump.

Sad how a few bad apples in a company can ultimately ruin a once prime reputation. I have never dealt with Thunder Racing myself personally, but I hope your situation gets better.

My dad and I are actually in a lawsuit with our boat where the local company (same one we bought the boat from) was quick to bill us for winterized and shrink wrap but when we asked to pick it up the other day they told us they had no clue where it is. We drive to their store to find our boat in the back, not even winterized, a huge scratch along the side of the boat (maybe someone/thing hit it), and the engine is toast. Of course the GM of the store tells us that they have had problems with the previous management that was fired and it "isn't their fault" our boat is in the condition its in. Goes to say you are only as good as your worst employee

Ive been waiting on my Nitrous Kit for over 2 months Thank god its winter and I dont drive anyways, but if it were summer I would have canceled by now. BO suck and its not always the company you buy from fault. Im my case the machine shop is holding everything up and not much anything they can do, except change machine shops and risk qaulity.

Oh and my racetronix injectors took a few weeks also. That was direct from them.
