Default I won. I'm back. I'M OPEN and swamped.

Don't have much time for detail right now since I'm trying to get back up with those of you I missed while I away as fast I can.

Short story. The Z06 took it's first two National wins (video will come at some point later). I drove the Tail of the Dragon with it, on Hoosiers... and on my first run having never seen it dogged Sport Bike who was dragging his knee and everything--yeah I know that cars have more grip. But that road isn't exactly wide-open (I could run all 11 miles in 2nd gear... and ever corner is like autocross speed for those that think what I do for handling is irrelevant in the real world).

Ok time to return some calls!!!

Good stuff! I placed an order a few weeks back for your springs, and some UMI parts, hope to hear from you soon.

Your name? I have a lot of orders here. If you don't get a call today or tomorrow, call me. Some folks thought they got them in, but never actually hit submit and got no e-mail response back. If you did you are good, if not I -would have never seen it.

And no, no time to spell check..... Have yet to eat lunch and it's 7pm.

Congradulations on the wins!
The Dragon... that's out my way. Got a lot of people that drive that around here. Too bad they shut down Killboy.com that week. Sometimes find pics of people you know on there :-) Never drove it myself yet though, TA still needs work

On another note I sent in an order, printed out the "Order Completed" form for my records and expected an email... that I never got. So I want to let you know I should have one someplace.

If you have not heard from me, please call me. Computers screw up, this is a BIG reason I don't take card numbers anymore online. Things get sucked into cyberspace. I have 40 orders here that arrived, if some didn't, I can't explain why.

I had the same thing happen. I never received an email after my order, so I just gave you a call and left a message.

Oh yeah, my name is: Cole Blasing

I also submitted an order as well, but never recieved an email from your site. Name's Westley Sterner. Should I resubmit through your site or is it it better to just call?

Ok, if you did not get a phone call or a confirmation message by e-mail, I don't have the order. I'm sorry, I truly am. I don't know why this happened, and I'm not happy about it. PLEASE CALL ME if you put in an order and have not gotten call back.
