His name is Mark the owner of "Not just carz" the shop is located in Orland Park. The nerve of this guy to try and blame Speed. He does work on a guy's car I know and believe me his car runs horrible! Terrible work, should have gone to Powerhouse they would have taken care of you.

that post was taken the wrong way and this was a while ago i even talked to you about it. i believe it was a parts guy that told that to me becuase i was trying to find what was wrong with the car becuase i had like 6 codes going off all from a bad o2 sensor. i talked to you and we solved it.

what i meant by that post was that just becuase of that one guy saying that one thing isnt going to make me take my business somewhere else. i didnt mean to start anything by it it just came out the wrong way and i didnt explain myself enough.

i will be bring in more business to you guys in the future with the nova. i do not think anything bad of you guys becuase of that. i DO think its a great shop. im sorry for not thinking that post through more.

A tech at Speed Inc. told me I was fat and ugly and would never do anything with my life. Personally, I think that was a little harsh, not to mention personal, for over-the-phone tech support from a guy I never met...


...but it's true...

and for the record i originally chose speed inc because i heard nothing but awesome things about their talent with LS engines... so when they told me something was wrong with that car i loaded it on the trailer and went front speed inc to mark to have him check it out and he started it reved the **** outa the motor and then said no way was anything wrong with it that they just fucked me and since i trusted him at the time thats what set it off that i thoight i really did get screwed by them but it turns out the only ones i got fucked by was "not just carz" and that speed inc did me a favor by not making anymore dyno runs on it

Well the guy that I was friends with met Mark awhile back and introduced me to him. He thinks he knows about cars he doesnt know ****. Your best bet would have been Chris and John at Powerhouse since you were southwest. Thats where Mark goes to buy his parts and ask them shitloads of questions about cars in particular the LS1. I wouldn't recommend a drunk driver to that *****.

Yeah, that was it. Dan. He is a good guy. Hope to see him and Jim racing again at NMCA in Joliet this year. Byron is too far away for me.

Dan is the big guy with the blonde hair. He's one of the best LSx techs in the country.
