Default SSR went bankrupt

I read this on SupraForum. Wanted to pass the news along.
It's a shame....I was saving up for SP1s.
I wonder if TireRack is still taking orders.

The japanese news article and translation can be found at the this link, however most of us can't read japanese so I snagged the translation from s2k boards:

http://www.nikkei.co.jp/news/sangyo...0B27012005.html

Translation:

Speed Star Co. and affiliate applying self bankruptcy

Speed Star Co., manufacturer of aluminum wheel production (Osaka prefecture Yao city, President Masanobu Hamada) with its sales arm, Speed Star Sales (Osaka city, President Nobuko Hamada) on the 27th, self bankruptcy was applied for in the Osaka district court. Debt total was registered as 67 hundred million yen (~$60 million USD) Speed Star Co. cites increasing overseas competition as factors to its declining sales, and as a result applied self bankruptcy to itself and also Speed Star Sales Co. (13:01)

brought to you buy the s2k guys:
