Well good news. I just got my RACE finally. Came in yesterday and I picked it up today. Out of the box it was pretty good. Though it feels like I have the same issue as one of my friends with the backplate/PCB being a little loose/not well secured. I get a slight creaking if I press down hard on my keys. (but since I'm using reds I don't really need to bottom out). Also the metal sticker came in a completely random/weird position as it did with many others. Looks like it doesnt even properly fit in the spot it was made for.



Overall though, I'm happy. All my LEDs seem to be in working order. Left em on the brightest setting for a few hours just to give it a little stress test to see if one would burn out. Looks like I got lucky with the soldering on this one. I guess it's not as solid as my Leopold but it's good overall. Thanks for everything iMav! (And for putting up with our constant bickering, really).
