Thunder Racing BAD BUSINESS ETHICS

[LS1Goat]

This is shocking, I've been out for a while also but I ordered from them numerous times when I had my goat. I'm in Louisiana and they used to get my stuff to me in a day or so. Sad to hear.

Thunder fucked me over so I called Geoff @ eps formerly from TR and he had my cam out in less than a week.

Sad to hear, these guys hooked me up with my 1st rnd of mods.

Had nothing but praise for TR but it seems they really took a hit with Katrina.

Anybody know why Geoff left? Thunder was one of the big shops for LSX back in the day.

Very sad but also very true, I used to order everything from Thunder. I spent at least 10k there in the last 2 years. My latest and will be the last order from them was 5400.00. Got the run around from Angie about how everything was on back order. I called trick flow and they said they had everything on the shelf, the order never came from TR. Took me nine weeks to get trick flow/TEA heads that were in stock at trick flow!! Very sad and poor comunication from TR the entire time. What a waste of a business.

Its a long story on personal issues on both sides from what I heard, but just know that Geoff is in a better position now.

I wish i had discovered this thread a month ago.... Here goes:

A few weeks ago i ordered a set of cometic head gaskets from thunder racing. When they failed to arrive the next week i called and asked what the deal was. They said, "they should ship by the end of the week." I'm like WTF? A week later i call wondering where they are, and they said they'll be shipped that day and I'd receive a tracking number. I asked if he was 100% sure, and he said yes. At that point i was pretty pissed. I called again yesterday(another week later), and they said they had LOST MY FUCKING ORDER. So i got a refund and bought them from ws6store. Never in my life have i gotten so much bullshit run-around and ball-face lies from a company. Needless to say, I'll never be doing business with them again. Even the refund took over 24 hours and 3 phone calls. On the 3rd phone call he told me the paypal refund had been submitted the day before. 3 minutes after we got off the phone i received the refund......lying sack of ****.

So yea. Long story short, **** thunder racing and their incredible ability to waste my ******* time and money. Now it's no wonder at all why they're going out of business. The sooner, the better.

Yeah man they really do suck. Thanks for your more recent story. Hopefully more people will read this before they buy.

TR and Speed used to be my preferred vendors when I was more active in modding/etc. speed is still doing good tho.

[ozzyls12001]

[rumblebox]

[deejaydaze]

Keep this thread going so they are NO LONGER IN BUSINESS. POST IT EVERYWHERE

Wow! What a shame.
I used to order from them 5+years ago and they were one of my favs. This is bad news.
