I hope you're moving northeast. I hate the drive to the SW burbs from my area. It's a serious pain in the ***......

But either way, you guys are worth the drive!

This will make you feel better....I drove up from Central Indiana (3 1/2 hrs.) to have FLP install my 3.73's. It was well worth it!

The funny part is, FLP is only about 40 miles away from me, but with weekday traffic driving from the north side of Chicago to the Naperville area, it can easily take well over 2 hours to get there. Too many people living around here....

Thumbs up

We will still be in Naperville... about 4 miles from our current location... on 111th Street just about a 1/4 mile west of RT. 59. The open house will be in the spring.

I'm always over there, the motorcycle shop where I get all my parts is right near that intersection.

PHIL/MITCH

Is FLP officially in now and open for business? Or are you in the process of moving and setting up phone, computers, etc., as we speak on November 1, 2006?

Im not sure on the phones I believe they are being switched over right now the 877-FLP-2WIN number is going to stay the same but the local number is going to change because its on a different exchange.

If you need to contact Mitch try him at sales@flp2win.com.

Im not sure when the new shop will officially open probably Monday next week but will have to wait for Mitch to confirm.

We are in the process of moving and everything should be back to normal on Monday.

Jim... I'll get you scheduled in asap. Your engine made the move without any problems.

I'm going to bed... I'm beat.
