Default THANK YOU in advance to Agostino Racing Engines

I'm finally having my motor pulled next week to get shipped back to ARE for the rebuild. After a long road of not knowing if I, or whoever, caused the ring problem, I'm just very thankful that Dave DiLuca began talking with me about it and Wade accepted the motor back to take care of it.

Thanks again Dave and Wade. Can't wait to get my awesome 436 back in the car and running strong again.

I'm quite excited about it.

I can't wait, it'll be like that B-Day gift I'm just waiting to open up. And my B-day was just 2 weeks ago so.............

I'm sure it'll be as badass as when I first had it installed.

They are working on becoming a sponsor again but have a few things to clear up first.

They were until a little while back. The Admins made a post stating they received no payment for the last few months and had dropped ARE as a sponsor. Since that time ARE has come on to rectify the past. Several post have been made in an attempt to bring forth anyone with problems to have them addressed so that they can have a clean slate so to speak.

Well said and the truth I wanted to let someone else explain the details as this makes more sense. It was no secret that we did have some financial issues a ways back and are all sorted out now

I am confident we will come back stronger than ever

Nick and the crew up there are working hard to get things straightened out for everyone and I applaud them for that.

Nick has taken the time to personally contact several folks on this forum. I feel he is giving this everything he has to get things straight with unhappy customers and get ARE back on track. Props to Nick thus far

Thanks Todd, it may be me delivering the message to people on the forums but it is everyone at ARE that is stepping up to the plate and getting things back on track

All of the guys at ARE have ALWAYS treated me well. Having Nick back in the mix can only help resolve old issues and promote good customer service to the people who aren't quite as local.

Good to hear Quicken

Nick you've got my car as I dropped it off this morning and Wade was kind enough to drop me at the go-train Can't wait to see what she's going to put down when you guys are done with my Hawk.
