Is anyone here familiar with CorteX Racing?

While looking around the web I stumbled across these:
http://www.cortexracing.com/shop/tac...rz-fr-s-ft-86/
I thought they looked pretty good but given that CorteX Racing has only made 2 posts (that I could find and one was locked/inactive) on these forums I was wondering if anyone here had had anything to do with them or knew of their work.

They make very good stuff and are well known with other makes like Mustangs. Probably didn't maintain a vendor account here.

They appear to be the only guys that make bump steer adjustable rear toe links. Their front control arms also very closely resemble robispecs front control arms which are a good design.

Looks like quality engineering to me.

@CorteXracing

I emailed them 3 weeks ago to enquire and get some more information regarding the item and shipping. Each response was 1 week apart. They barely answered my question regarding fitment but did give me a shipping quote estimate.

I got frustrated the responses were taking so long so I expressed my concern and they responded by saying we can no longer ship to you because you are international. Their reason was that they are not in a position to research rates and packaging items in combination. Seriously? They were originally willing to ship and provided me with a quote and details on weight and cost. How does that make any sense.

All I want is one set of toe links that fit into a USPS international flat rate box which costs exactly 70 buks.

So I responded stating exactly as above describing the costs involved and I suspect they will just ignore me and not reply. Seem professional to you?

lol. if you're a buyer who wants support and good customer service, forget these guys.

FYI, the person I dealt with is named Filip Trojanek.
