Any news on the Haynes book release

Hi, Anyone out there have any info on Haynes's "Build your own single-seater on a budget" release date?

I have one on order with Amazon and the predicted delivery still says the 4th of November. Seems a little unlikely as there is nothing to back this up on the Haynes site

What year (Amazon are suggesting Oct 2010 currently if you check out the Product Details section)

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Build-Your-Own-Single-Seater-Budget/dp/1844256391/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1257188527&sr=8-1

Probably best to ask over on the haynes forum for a definitive answer.

It's probably Amazon's amazing rolling release date. Got stung on quite a few pre-orders that way before

Pointless asking here, you won't get a definative answer, the author is banned from this site....

Dam, your right, on checking my amazon account it does say 2010. Never even considered that they might be taking orders (and money) over a year in advance

Below is from Chris Gibbs, when we were discussing this recently on another forum

The car's coming on very well, as is the book, few more bits and we're off for the IVA. The book's due out when Haynes can fit it into their production schedule

It is going to be fully legal if you so desire, and there will be a couple of firms able to do chassis/plate kits, and another has the moulds for the bodywork.

I too am looking forward to this, but need to finish my roadster first
