I ordered mine the last time there was a group sale (one of these days I'll get around to an install)
Similar issues with the box, however I blame the shipping company (DHL) not RaceConcepts.

Dhl...

finally got around to sending me a shipping confirmation note. Hopefully, I'll see this package today. I'd like to get busy installing it over this weekend, and testing out the brakes on some twisty roads...namely Fairfax-Bolinas Rd.

Light Weight Rotors!

I got my DHL tracking number a few days ago, I just checked on the progress. The estimated delivery date is Nov 16th.

The shipping weight is listed as ten pounds for: front & rear rotors, front & rear pads, stainless steel lines and brake fluid.

These have got to be the lightest rotors I have ever heard of!

Hmm...

my estimate (strained back lifting the box into SViXen) is around 80 lbs.

That sounds more accurate. Maybe Ben said it was only 10 pounds to get a better price from DHL, he's paying for the shipping.

My package has arrived at my PO Box, I haven't picked it up yet because I'm working graveyard shift. There's a note in my PO Box that says "There's a HEAVY! box it the back".

I'm not waiting till Xmas to open it!!!
