Default Gone racin'... shop is open

I'm on my way out to Solo Nationals in Kansas. This is one of the last messages I have to send. I'll be back on 10/2, *hopefully* with National Championship #3.

The shop will be open, you can order parts, ask questions, etc. Just don't look for me on here or to answer PM's as I won't be around to do so.

As always, if someone it looking for me and doens't know I'm gone I'd appreciate it if you folks could let them know!

Thanks!

Sam, if you get this before you leave, I could really use those allignment settings you talked with me about for your springs? The car is driven daily so it would be nice to conserve some tire. I just wanted to make sure the one I get after this weekend will be good to go.

Jon

P.S.

Good luck with that National title chase!

I won the Solo National Championship too..... 3 full sets ($3,360 worth) of Hoosier's coming my way!

It was a good week, and a lot of customers did extremely well too, both in my class and in others. All told me and my customers came home with at least 7 national championships, and maybe more--I haven't added them all up yet.

Sam,

I got that sway bar today. Took me a bit to get it installed as I had to find the old bolts for the bushing mount. LOL I talked to your wife I think. So nice and friendly.

Anyways the point is...holy hot damn what a difference. I don't know about stock to this but man going from nothing to this is incredible. I will defintly be giving you a call monday to order the rear bar and discuss shock and spring options again to finilize the plan fo rmy car.

Once again thanks a lot.

That'd be my Mom.... it's a family business, and I'm not married.

I'll pass on the kind words to her, she'll appreciate it. And as for the bar, glad to hear you like it and I hope we can count on you to chime in the next time a spat about running without a front bar comes up!

I don't hide what I run, but it's not only a long list of parts but also not something I want anyone in the world to be able to take and buy all their parts elsewhere. And sadly, that happens. My R&D and time apparently isn't worth much to some folks and so I can't just let out work knowledge randomly.

Happy to help, and will gladly answer any questions.....

I will tell you that you are missing a lot of important parts, and have a lot of others that not only aren't much help, but could actually be hurting you some.
