RACE Keyboard - OFFICIAL PRE-ORDER / PRE-PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS!!

[xquisit]

Can't wait to get this keyboard, I play an MMORPG with over 40 keybinds....and not all of them register on this fifteen-year-old DELL QuietKey.

[iMav]

UPDATE:

Shipments are going out every day. NOT EVERYONE HAS BEEN SENT THEIR SHIPPING INVOICE YET!

I am handling the "low hanging fruit" first...which are the domestic shipments.  Once I get through all of them, the international orders and other domestic shipments I have questions about will be addressed.

Hang in there!  I expect that you will see pictures of folks' RACE keyboards shortly here on GH.

Lol that makes me more impatient! I really hope I get mine today :3

When I played a Warlock on WoW I had close to 60 ;-)

[xquisit]

40 might be a lot, but I can make room for more That's the sad part!!

I play AION, it's a very grindy MMORPG, but the eye-candy isn't so bad with the crysis engine (that kind've sucks btw).

imav, please post your schedule for the rest of the shipments.

[spaceship]

Is that the first successful delivery? Awesome!

[Striketh]

Ah, damn you rknize. I've been checking the mail each day and mine is still MIA. I really hope it gets here this week.

[rknize]

What do I do with this squirrel and nut key?   

[gimpster]

I think yours must have been delivered at almost exactly the same time as mine. Go team Brown/White!!!

It's weird going to this one from my Poker w/ ergo clears...need that switch order from demik now. But I am loving having a dedicated Esc, tilde, and arrow keys again.

[rknize]

The backspace is driving me crazy still.  I keep hitting either Del or Home.

[Striketh]

What don't you like about the backspace?

[rknize]

Apparently my muscle memory looks for the corner of the key cluster to find it.

[Lord de Seis]

won't be a problem if you remove the corner keys, lol

[xquisit]

That's one thing I'm scared of, getting accustomed to the layout!

Isn't the backspace in the same location where the Pure is (incoming, do the research yourself post from someone)?

[megnin]

When the keyboards arrive will they look like this?    )

they're all on R4.... but i guess some like to smash the outer corner of the backspace.

I type like Stephen Stucker.

[vurt]

Putting everyone's fears to bed as well. This post brought to you by a fresh from the box KBT Race.

[Striketh]

*shakes fist*

I expect some kind of review from you guys that have gotten it.

[Intense]

damn I'd be super jealous if my Ducky Year of the Dragon hadn't came in today

to the people who already got theres, where are you located in the US?

[Lord de Seis]

i just got my email for shipping information today, but might have gotten it sooner if there weren't misunderstandings about selling parts of preorder.... oh well, glad that mess is cleared up.

in case you're wondering, i'm located in california and my order is blue/white + keycap set

[ekw808]

Just got home, and my keyboard arrived in the mail, out of the box, the metal race sticker was misaligned by 400%, and the center of the case where the sticker would be looks like it is cracked, and since the sticker was pretty much stuck in its position, I bent it trying to realign it =/.

Which switch types did you guys get?

I got the MX Reds with purple LEDs, and even though its more of a pinkish color I love it Coming from MX Blacks btw

[captain]

PINK??!?   I was told there was no pink, which is why I stuck with green.  :-(

[xquisit]

Wonder how long Vortex will delay on the white key cap sets!

[snarlingchicken]

Wonder how long Vortex will delay on the white key cap sets!

Maybe another 9 months :3

[sth]

They probably used up their stock of pre-ordered white keys to put on the RACE LE which was announced AFTER the RACE but released BEFORE they even shipped our keyboards to iMav Vortex is sketchy.

note, this is entirely conjecture. in fact, it's probably not true but it's more fun to **** on vortex.

[Lord de Seis]

i kept my blue/white led and sold my brown/white led.

[sth]

Just got mine today, what a pleasant surprise.
It looks really good with the LEDs at the lowest brightness - the keys look like slightly-luminescent doubleshots. Can't wait to get my white caps!

THANKS IMAV

[xquisit]

Well, I'm just excited to see how this keyboard will change my gaming experience in my MMORPG.

Forty keybinds is no joke, and they obviously don't all register on this RDORM.

I do not see purple at all maybe the camera doesn't show it well. Maybe its a light magenta

[sth]

please parse the string 'purple as ****' as 'more purple than pink by a wide margin'

[xquisit]

Indeed, most of the posts were in this thread!

I was the type of person who thought keyboards do no matter, and I use them a lot daily... it's time to enhance my typing experience!
