I agree. The build sheet was only one of many important issues brought up in that thread. Most of the relevant questions in that thread went unanswered anyway.

Why even bring it up again SharockG?

Congrats to the OP for getting the problems taken care of.

with all due respect to everyone here, can we please keep this thread on topic, without it turning into a whole "everyone vs. RA" thing? This thread is about how a bad story led to a happy ending. It's kind of like pi$$ing on his thread, should this turn into an RA bashing incident again.

On topic: great story, happy to see it worked out. Enjoy that newfound power...i know i would.

you should be just fine. Most shops seem to be doing a fine job on all the work here lately. Just the unwaranted calling out and bashing (and the reasons behind it) is making me sick

Good luck to both of you and enjoy your cars.

Hey man good to see you and your brother finally got what you paid for.I saw the g last week going towards your house and it looked pretty strong. I was driving the red dc5 w/ black slipstreams.Well keep in touch man.

Hope you guys get some compensation for all the troubles vrt caused you and if you ever need some kind of backing in court the offer still stands.

If you guys track it this season ill see you out there we got alittle suprise for the comp.Scott might even get a little wet.


anyways take it easy

So you are involved in open track days and HPDE's / Time Attack events?? What car is yours, I follow all type of motorsports and am a hobbiest myself. I follow the events coverage of all the west coast and east coast Time Attack events and would like to keep up with your progress.

Just what is it that you guys are going to be "bringing to the competition", that should have Scott in the Double Down 350Z worried about?

I never said it would beat mike b's car.I know who takes care of it.And im sure jwt keeps the car up on the latest and greatest racing parts.

I just said scott might get a little wet, As far as some new parts that will be showing up this season.(i have talk to him about them a while back)

I'm just a tech.My friend is the owner and driver of the car that will be equipped.It will be a head turner for being a street to track jwt twin turbo car.

Remember you dont need 100000000whp to win at time attack.
