UPDATE: Awaiting last two entries (USA and UK) that I know have been postmarked prior to January 19.

Likely being held up at border Customs.

Gotta be patient.

Yep....is mine still the one missing from the US? (#68) Maybe you should just go on without it. It seems like it has 'gone missing'.



When I check the tracking I have it says, 'arrived in Canada sent for further processing'.

I just got back to the states from 10 days in Mexico...so won't see if by some chance it was returned by the post office to me.

I did not send it 'special handling' like JT....so only paid 7 or 8 dollars.

Have tentatively scheduled first race for next Sunday, February 25.

Still got a week for the last two entries to show up.

Stay tuned.

Dan

Have pushed first track running to next weekend for Saturday, March 3 or Sunday, March 4. Got a rare winter snow dump that's affected mobility out here.

Still waiting for brainslot's (USA) and RSSlotracing's (UK) cars that are likely being held up at Canada Customs. Have been told by Canada Post that they "can hold on to items for as long as they want and then only does it go for further processing by the postal system."

Fingers crossed that they arrive this week.

Dan

Good news!

The two missing cars have arrived, safe and sound. Looks like they were being held at Canada Customs as they came on the same day as well as a parts order (Dec. 28/17) from the UK.

They'll make tomorrow's round 5 race on Perry's Rocket and we'll do some courtesy runs on Luf's Big Targa and Burnaby Hill Climb on Monday before regular racing.

Thank you Canadian Customs! :text-thankyouyellow:

Very good looking cars, I can understand why they wouldn’t want to let them go. I wonder how many laps the customs officers put on the cars? :dance:

Will be exciting to see how they perform.

I'm relieved that my car finally made it to you guys! I spent ages building it for this, my first ever Proxy race.
It left the UK on 16th January and arrived in Canada on 19th Jan. It's taken 48 days to get through Canadian Customs - 48 DAYS!!!!! Unbelievable. :angry-tappingfoot:

So it's missed quite a few races by the looks of it, but I'm just glad it isn't lost after all.

Guess I'll get it back around 2020 then? :lol:

Oh and by the way, I sent mine International Tracked & Signed at an inflated cost of £10.00. Clearly doesn't speed things up so don't waste your money guys, send via standard post in future.
