I was wondering when was the last time someone checked out the Bolink Website? I was on it last month with no problems but I haven't been able to access it all day today. Have they shut down... again? I need another Superbird body :cry:

Speedy's has them listed as out of stock. I e-mailed them and asked if the planned on getting any more... we'll see.
Of course I gave the one I had away thinking I could always get another :roll:

I tried going to BoLink's site a couple of days ago and it didn't work. I didn't think too much of it and even forgot about it until now.

Try out http://rjspeed.com/ It looks as if they bought out Bolink. Tower Hobbies even sells their products! I saw a Digger ad in the Speedmart mag.

rjspeed did buy most of bolink. but the bolink name and a few left overs was sold to someone else which is who was running bolink.com. i had been in contact with him a while back but it was through his email which was a bolink.com addy so it is currently no longer working.

http://www.windtunnelracingproducts.com is another company that had bought part of bolink but by the looks to it and from talking with them the dirt oval, nascar/truck, and road course bodies are what they got as far as body molds go.

I placed an order on their wesite months ago. They sent me a confirmation email but never sent the body or charged my card. I have sent numerous emails with no response.

I have contact with Bob Rule if that helps at all. Maybe he has the contact info for the person that has the site now. I'll ask him.

I just contacted the original owner and asked who owned the site now and explained what happened. It seemed like you guys needed more contact info since the site contact wasn't working for you so I got it. Do with it what you feel is most responsible.
