So you slant the top of the footboxes, mold the tub with white gelcoat instead of black and that problem is fixed forever.

Agreed, but as you already know they're open to that kind of feedback as well. My impression is these guys are prepared to do whatever it takes to be competitive in price, features, and quality.

The economies of scale with Scranton are tremendous. Their raw material consumption is already so high that they're be buying steel and fiberglass cheaper than anyone in the replica business with car #1. Couple that with the ability to utilize existing tools and existing people and the only cash flow problem they are going to have is how to haul it all to the bank.
