Talking MADMAN and crew A+++++

Called Steve at MADMAN yesterday and the secretary or whatever was really nice and said he was at lunch and that she would give him my number and all once he gets back.

Not even 30 minutes later I get a call. This marks the first time that someone called me back when they said they would when it comes to shops!

Talked to Steve for a good 30 minutes or so, super nice guy and honest to boot.

We are working on a plan for my car and I am selling off pretty much everything and going with his parts (most of what I have is useless not anyway).

Going 25.2 with I am sure all of MADMAN's parts.

I told him I don't play around, I don't want a tinker toy, I want to go fast and hook and he said "thats what we like to hear, you came to the right place"

Once I get these unexpected medical bills taken care off and get some cash (they are going to need the car for a while hahaha) I will take the car down to them as soon as I can and make the 13 some odd hour drive.

Motor combo and chassis specs are hush hush for now but it should be pretty sick.

Thanks again to Steve and the other lady for all the help so far.

Steve, I am going to PM you the specs and some other things here in a sec to see what you think.

She must be a ANGEL to put up with Madman!!!!!!!

You will be amazed at his track support, even those that did not have his parts had his service available.

Talked to Steve again today and he is working on a price for everything in the next few days.

Going with everything they recomend for the chassis/suspension on top of a 25.2 with a MT DR.

I know my wallet is going to get really hot when I see the price but I would rather do it right the first time and be done with it

I thought I was going to have to bring the motor and tranny for mock up on a few things but he said he is pretty sure they have a block and tranny case that they could use for mock up.... saves me a few hundred pounds off the trailer

Track/tech support is a nice perk

I've been getting a few ideas together on your quote but havn't put anything down on paper just yet. I'll be calling or PMing you sometime tomorrow most likely with a full list. Thanks for bringing your business to us. We will do everything we can to make this car a work of art!

Can't say enough about MADMAN, his wife, and their red headed step child (Steve LOL).

All give A+++ customer service, even Brian (MADMAN) when he seems really stressed out is great.

Took less then a week from first call to a quote on everything I want done. I never thought I would hear them say, "This is a BIG job...." Im not going to say what all is going to get done but they are going to need the car for I bet at least 2 months.

Very honest people, told me what I needed to hear, not what I wanted to hear.

If you want the best and want to go fast and screw around with little tinker toys call them up.
