cat sx release date

[°°.°°sicotange°°.°°]

Hello guys,

I spoke to Matthew White last sunday at the Belgian GP (Kampenhout) about the release date of the Cat SX. He told me the Schumacher boys said before the end of july (2008). Maybe this is old news but I thought I should share this.

I have read this somewhere else, so hopefully it is true, although I wouldn't be surprised if the release date slides into August as we were first told it would be May / June.

The German importer told me something about late July/mid-August, so it must arrive sometime in the near future...we'll wait and see!

Maybe next year for me, I still like my SP, strange thing...

Yup no kit is ever on time regardless of manufacture it seems.

CAT SX looks stunning though, I can not wait to get mine and get a review done

I was told last week that the cars are all ready to go apart from shock shafts. I think they are on the way from china

End of July is the predicted date

Pretty good result at the Euro's for the new CAT, it's obviously 100% competitive.

Yeah the Euros result is amazing, congratulations to Simon if he reads this. Clearly shows the car is capable of getting up to serious positions, 3rd in one of the legs / challenging for second.

Puts my mind at ease on that front, if it's good enough for that it's more than good enough for my skill level.

End of July sounds great

@glypo : all three cars were scoring top 15 results Grant and myself were just that little unlucky to jump into the single digit results. A little more experience
would have helped a lot.

[glypo]

Sorry Cruise. By congratulating Simon I did not mean to discredit the other Schumacher drivers. You all done a great job, congratulations all for going so well with the new car.

[Cruise]

I didn't understand it in that way.I just wanted to make clear for what the car is capable in the hands of not so gifted drivers ( like me )

Cruise.

[mes]

Aaaawwwww! No need for understatement, Ralf! Good job, guys!

[MattW]

Yeah for sure, Good job to Ralf and Grant with it being first time they had run car. I guess the cars did you guys well

[jimmy]

Who's had to lose their car then? Ralf or Matt? Or will there be enough to go around soon?

[MattW]

Ha ha, well the car i've been running clocked up a fair few miles in not so many days. My house to Belgium, then i thrashed it within an inch of it's life!! (Si kept telling me i was over driving all weekend - ME, how dare he! Never!!)

Then it had to endure the high speed journey with Kev and Jon from Belgium to Italy - fortunately it doesn't seem to have been scarred by being present when Kev was so blatently breaking Swiss Law

As for it's current location - No idea!

[Cruise]

It left Italy in better condition as it arrived there alongside with Grants car to be analyzed and then be refurbished by Phil Booth.

@ Matt Phil wasn't that happy about the state of the car.

Cruise.

Matt,

The Show Car, yours and Grants were all strapped lovingly into the back of Glyn's van. I believe they made it home ok (Unlike Preddy and Barney ) and are now residing happily on Ebay. Lol

[MattW]

lol, so that is why it was needing a rebuild during the week then!!
