A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

My favorite part of the whole thing was the quote from the guy where he  sez, and I quote  "you lying prick next time im in texas ill look you up maybe your old lady needs some real dick."[/size] That guy needs a reality check.

I don't believe he is a vendor on TB. He does get mentioned and attends Dennis' openhouse/picnics deals.

He's not a vendor on TB and there's a few threads about him over there ripping people off. He is a friend of Richard Clark though. He's made a few promisses on sponsoring soe of the races last year as well as this year, but has never come through with the money. :icon_evil:

I never buy from sellers that have 97% feedback. You're usually asking for trouble if you do.

Yeah - I heard about that PDF last week - pretty amazing he's still in business. It tells you that the Buick community is larger than we though, or maybe not as close-knit as we though. How is he still in business?

Steve has a very good point, the way eb*y feedback is slanted anyone less than 98-99% is
questionable.
