Default Ordered Part and No Answer? Can anyone help?

Hey guys,

Bought the rear end gear package from Thunder Racing as seen the picture attached. I ordered 4/8/2013, no calls no nothing. Nothing confirmation email except the pdf and no tracking number. Called motive gears and he has 3:73's for series two carrier stocked in ATL and he doesn't understand why Thunder Racing has them listed as back ordered. Their phones don't work and they don't respond to emails.

I've read a lot of this kind of thing happening with them. Seems they are going down the same path as Internet Racer's Supply from years ago.

If you recall MADMAN&CO. parted ways with them a few years back that should give a clue right there.

It sucks to hear. I wouldn't do business with thunder racing after everything I've heard over the years. They really haven't been doing good business for at least a year. With enough word of mouth and what you see on the internet makes you want to stay clear away from it.

If TR has pulled the money from your account, dispute it with your bank, then
order directly from Motive.

Contact the, either leave a message or by e-mail and inform them if you do not receive proof of shipping, within a time period you are comfortable with, you will ask your credit card company to refund the money.

Thunder Racing is out of business I passed around there today. Either they're selling leftover stock or they took your money. Sorry dude

I knew them when they worked out of the same building Gallant was operating out of. They seemed to be good people.......... at the time.

Sad to say but it seems they have closed and cheated you.

I STRONGLY suggest you contact the prosecuter in Baton Rouge and find out about pressing criminal charges.

Good luck.

Do a search for Thunder. It was posted by one of the moderators about 2 days ago.
