I assume that most here know about the sale going on at Sonic Craft? If not, here's the link - runs through the end of the month.

I've been working with Jeff to buy the parts I need to upgrade my SRS2s to the TL spec pioneered by Inspiredsports (fingers crossed!).

I was expecting an invoice last Friday or over the weekend, and I finally sent a note asking about it. Here's how Jeff explained the reason for the delay:
It seems a truck lost control in the rain Monday. Hwy 7 passes right by our warehouse. This is the first time the building has been hit :~(

The passenger is OK, but the driver is still in critical condition. I'm just thankful that no one was in that end of the building at that time.

    Oh my.

    Perhaps the driver was bringing the truck to "stock up" before the sale ends!

    I'm willing to bet it was attempted industrial espionage by some Canucks. :D

    Yikes

    I just sent an email order in this afternoon. :( Guess I'll be waiting to hear back for a while. I hope they're able to get it all back in order soon and without to much trouble.
