WHAT HAPPENED...to JCW Clubman engine kit?

I keep asking after it at my dealer and they think it's just been forgotten since the intro of the 2009 JCW models. Maybe it's more sinister and MINI just wants to force me to buy a new JCW model, but at 10K over what I paid for my clubman S I'd rather upgrade the performance of the model I have and use a factory product. WHAT HAPPENED? Any rumors of when it might come on-line?

I don't have an answer for you but I hope what happened to us automatic owners doesn't happen to you clubman guys. We've been patiently waiting and waiting for a JCW stage I release for the automatics and now it's been canned.

It pisses me off because one of the main reasons I went with the auto was because I knew I could add the JCW stage I kit to it.

Now I'm screwed. I either have to go aftermarket (which there is none at the moment) or buy a JCW.

Hope ya'll get it soon....
