Whelp, I don't know if he came through or not today. He has logged onto Tech today but I haven't gotten anything from him. Anyone else?

 

Guys, thanx alot for being patient with me. I got all TBs out today UPS. I hope you all have them by Friday.

 

Sweet! Thanks! This Friday? If so, that's some fast shipping. Oh yeah, I hope I get the one I sent in to you because mine still had sensors on the TB.

 

Thanks Ron, I'll be sure to send anyone else I know ur way for the P/P TB.

 

I'll believe it when I see my TB. I pm'd him several times with no reply, even when he's logged in as being online. When I get a pm while I'm on the site, a little box pops up on my screen asking me if I want to see it. How hard would it have been to send one pm addressed to all those awaiting their TB's regardless of what he is going through personally? I'd understand better if he hadn't been logging in, but he was on a regular basis. The key to success in any endeavor is communication-an area where Ron needs to improve. Had he replied to my pm, there would probably be no ill feelings at all. Unfortunately, at present as far as I know, he has my TB(delivered 8/31) and my money.

We'll see if I get my TB Friday, but I'm planning on not having it to use at Sebring on Sunday.

 

Because I didn't have mine, I missed the last drag night of the season. I'm going to Iraq in November and won't get to drag again until 2007. I was looking forward to running with the other new mods that arrived on time and are still waiting to go in, but I guess I'm S.O.L. I'll just have to hope it arrives Friday like he sais. I still haven't gotten a tracking number though after being told many times I would receive one immediately after shipment. Not only from him, but a moderator as well. If it shows up Friday, I'll be happier than a pig in **** because I haven't driven my car in over six weeks. It's crippled in my garage at the moment.

 

Thanx for the kind words Dr Chill...... Just to clarify, I dont log on everyday. My homepage on the desktop @ work is LS1Tech.com. Everytime someone goes on line on my computer it shows Im online on Tech. I have been online two times in about 2 weeks and both times I have posted in this thread.

Im truly sorry you guys have missed a drag night and havent driven your cars. I know the feeling... Trust me... I also know, to me, having an only uncle go into a coma and being told when/if he awakens he will be a vegetable and seeing what it did to my family is just a touch more important than drag racing......

Please guys, sometimes try to look at the bigger picture at hand.

As I said, I hope to have all TBs arrive Friday. Again, I am sorry for any inconvenience I have caused you all.

Please note also that I will NOT be porting TBs for the next 60 days. I need a break and some time to spend with my family.

 

Sorry if I caused you any grief, but being left in the dark leaves one to question. Best wishes to your family.

 

Reading this thread Im not sure how you were left in the dark. I have people on here who know me personally and I spoke with a moderator on the phone who communicated with everyone what exactly was going on.

Thank you for your kind words, I appreciate it more than you know.

 

It's cool man, and no grudge either. Now that they're out and we didn't have to wait a very long long time, we'll stop bothering you. Handle your business man, sorry for the rough times.

 

How many times did I tell you that Ron would come through? And how many times did I have to reiterate what kind of issues he was going through?

As prior service, I know what you're going through. Missing the last drag night before the deployment sucks, but think of the bigger picture. God willing you'll be back to race again. Ron's case is not so fortunate.

All those times you guys got upset and PM'd me about how Ron had gotten online but hadn't PM'd you any information or posted in the thread....guess that was a lot of fuss about nothing now, huh?

I'm not trying to stir up any ****, but I think I called this one from the get go.

Also, Ron, if you're not going to be doing throttle bodies....I'd throw a note in your sig concerning that. Otherwise you'll be turning down a lot of business

 

u can always get another TB and make $75 however but u can never get back that loved one that is currently in a coma and probably for the rest of his life not to mention if he does wake up he will be a vegetable for the rest of his life. This guy has a 5 yr old son...

Don't even try and say "he had my **** and money and we didn't know what was going on." We were updated quickly on Rons status, u guys got too impatiant. Yeah, I was wondering too and that's why I started this thread, my question was answered. Think a lil, I have too been deployed and missed some PRIME racing conditions...get over it cuz there will always be another time. I also have been riped off by other people with other things....it sucks but life goes on. If u check Rons past on this board it's spotless, so what's said about him and what he tells me I trust.

 

So I'm the bad guy for wanting my ****? I'm selfish for wanting my moneys worth and a car that is driveable? Because I questioned him when I had no idea EXACTLY what he was going through until after it shipped according to Ron? I'm a dick because the answers I got were vague and later turned to be untrue? And yeah sure, I could have just **** myself a new TB whenever I wanted too right? Whatever guys. I know Ron has a spotless record on here. I checked before I sent because I don't know him personally like some of you guys. Gimme a damn break. He got my money, did the service and he sais he sent. Once it arrives, this is over and can be dropped.

 

The answers you got weren't vague. Thats the point. I'll leave it at that.

 

First of all, one would only know about this thread if one looked for it. I happened upon it yesterday by accident, so I hardly think I was forewarned. I sent several pm's which were ignored despite seeing him as having recent activity. Yes, there is a good explanation, but on the surface it seemed pretty fishy. I was referred to Bo White for porting who in turn sent me to Ron. Ron had always responded to communication promptly, and when his replies stopped shortly after getting my money and TB, it concerned me. I don't hang out on this site that often since it is more F body geared than C5, but I wasn't notified by any moderator of a delay due to illness.

I wouldn't jump on us for wondering what was going on.

 

Guys, I think this thread has served its purpose..... I had a misfortunate situation that caused a delay in getting you your TBs..... Everything is in the mail... No need to keep the bickering going on. We are all Gearheads here!!!!

Thanx to those were patient and understanding.... and to those who werent... well GFY
