We wanted to let everyone know that the 4.44s are currently out of stock due to demand at the new lower price. We have evidently almost completely depleted the existing stock of the 4.44 gears in the US and Japan. We are not sure how long it will take to replenish our stock, be we are scouring the world to find existing sets. We many find all we need in a few days or we may find none.

If the former is the case, we'll know in a few days. If the latter is the case, a new production run will be necessary, which could take about 2 months or more. If a new production run is necessary, we are exploring options that will enable us to produce the gear sets to racing standards.

If you are planning to order a 4.44 gear set, your options are several:

1. Wait until we can find more stock or begin a new production run, which we will announce on the board

2. Order the 4.77 or 4.3 gears, which we have in stock

3. Order the 4.44 now, and get your name in line for shipping when we do have new stock. But be warned that this will tie up a signficant amount of your hard-earned cash while you wait.

We wish it was that low, but two decimels points to the right is closer to the truth.
