It's supposed to be the most potent pepper spray out there. I've seen a few videos where hardcore marines were having a tough time with it. If you notice when it sprays out it's like a jelly type viscosity to it, which makes it even worse

Wow man sorry to hear, if you decide to do it yourself I will help out with whatever, just want to help an fbody guy get his car back on the road.

As far as shops I have my recommendation for s shop or two, or shops I have heard great things about, let me know I can PM ya.

I have one person I know who tries to rep Rob now and I tell him every time that no one will listen because Rob is a piece of trash, I heard Milkys story when I first bought my car and all the other horror stories about him, I never could understand how someone could legitimately operate like that.

Neither can I! ... Honestly, I'm curiouse if he really still retains the buisness name Strictly Performance or if his business license got stripped and he's
just working under another DBA.

The BAR license for SP is gone, so I would imagine it's under DTS now.

To the OP, I read about SP in GMHTP and thought they would be a good choice, against my better judgment after going to the shop only once I should have known better, but I let them fix the car anyways. I got a bag of Rob's dirty laundry left in my trunk and he took my car out to get food and left trash in it as well.

That was the same article that lead me to believe his credibility. If his "business partners" know any better, they would take the numerous accounts of disservice and cut their losses.

Does he just work at the new shop or is he the owner?
The new shop is called: D.T.S. - Strictly Performance and is in Reseda. Doesn't seem like he could be the owner if he got in all that trouble.

Yea, it was a yellow C5 that he was given permission by the owner to break in after the build was complete. I'm pretty sure that the owners understanding "breaking in" was taking it to the track or 0-60 runs on deserted streets. Not to take on dates or food runs. lol! ... Yea, from what Rob told me, back when we were friends, he took it into 2 parked vans. ... DRIVER MOD NEEDED!! lol!!
