The whipple wait

[Mantis]

I ordered mine around Black Friday, got it today, just to give an idea.

Who did you order from and was shipping details provided or it just showed up?

Who’d you order it from? And what a welcome surprise that must’ve been.

I’m guessing by his signature he ordered from Beefcake Racing.

Great news that it showed up!

The waits worth every minute...

I ordered mine from Beefcake on labor day. Delivered early November so about 8 or 9 weeks. Be patient, it is well worth it. The quality of the kit is amazing and the power is ridiculous. Can't wait for some warmer weather...

Slightly concerning 9k of parts just showed up without notification.

I was thinking the same.

Yes ordered from beefcake racing. Whipple ships it out, only reason I can think there was no notification

I had a FP big brake kit just arrive one day. Sat in the rain for two days before I noticed. The box was damn heavy and the driver just dropped it off in a weird spot by the driveway. Dick.

I used to know all the drivers but now there are too many different drivers that deliver and too many 3d party companies too. I think that is who dumped my brake kit.

Sure would be nice to get a heads up for the SC kit...

FedEx has a feature that if you create an account with them then you will get tracking information texted or emailed to you if something is going to your address regardless if the seller communicates with you. I have found that I get notified through that before the seller even notifies me. UPS also has that option but I just created my account last night so I haven't don't know how well the feature works yet.
Something to consider so that you are not beholden to the seller for information.

Didn't happen for me and my brake kit. The shipment showed up online after delivery, but I never got the notice. I assume the delivery would have been there had I checked pre-delivery, but I had no expectation of arrival (it was delivered earlier than expected).

Stupid Covid...

FedEx lol. I ordered a smoker in Nov and my drive is about

100ft long, but FedEx driver decided to drop it off half way up my drive so it sat there until I got home from work. I had to take screen shot from my security cam since it makes me laugh.
Just recently, I ordered a PS4 controller and the driver left it on my hose reel in the rain, which is literally 5ft from my porch.

you never know who you are going to get for your driver. I actually had a delivery this week that for some reason required a signature. No one was home and the driver called me. I didn't answer the call because I was in a meeting. He then sent me a text. After my meeting I called him and the guy went back to my house to drop off my package. I thought that was pretty cool.

Opened the garage to go pickup my kid from school and FedEx is wheeling two big Whipple boxes up the driveway! WHIPPLE HAS LANDED!!!

I had zero notification that it even shipped, so glad I was home! Ordered the kit 11/16/2020.
