Running an actual business takes a little more than that. If this was merely a one horse accident -- we wouldn't be having this conversation. I can assure you this is the tip of the iceberg! So many victims. I'm even more angry that I've lead my friends into the swamp. It stops NOW!
Stick to what you are good at and hire good where you are lacking. If you cannot do that, stick to what you are good at.

Default THE POSITIVES!!!!! Let's not forget those!

#1 ---- Sutton is the absolute MASTER at suspensions

#2 ---- What he did with Old Yeller is beyond comprehension --- you'd have to drive it to understand.

#3 ---- I have heard only 100% positives about products from SPEEDTECH and RIDETECH etc. Please DO NOT LUMP THEIR PRODUCTS AND SERVICE IN WITH this debacle.

#4 ---- The Beast handles like WOW!!! AMAZING....... so chassis and suspension.... are stellar..... Please don't throw the baby out with the bathwater

it was posted a while back and was in reference to all the joking and funny **** that was being talked about. reposting it now was not the intent of the original comment.

Holy Smoke Greg. I was so stoked talking to Aaron about the “event”. Sucks out Loud. You’re a good man Greg, Illigitimi Non Carborundum...

Just to be sure..... this is NOT ABOUT ME..... or this particular project!!

It's about all the people I'm hearing from that haven't gotten parts -- they've gotten the wrong parts -- they're waiting MONTHS for parts -- in some cases a couple years!! WTF!! A couple have abandoned their projects because of it.....

I don't care who you are --- that's just wrong! Just so so wrong!

I sincerely apologize to all who have been wronged because I feel like some of you probably did business with him because of me. THAT IS WHAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT TO ME..... to get this out in the open so nobody else is going to have these issues!

I'm not on Pro-Touring.com or Facebook etc..... but this is a tidal wave of people just on this one site (Lat-G). I would hope that people speak up on these other places if they know what going on.

I'm not sure what's taken a turn faster, the car or this thread.

...and I probably shouldn't crack jokes at this time.

I'm sorry to hear about the troubles, Greg. I hope it can be fixed easily so you can enjoy it.

My stuff will be fine -- I have ample means and friends that will sort thru it. I'm not concerned about me at all ----- I'm concerned with those that are screwed over getting the wrong stuff - never getting stuff - and all the other "wrongs". I don't know how a guy could function or sleep at night knowing he's done so many people wrong. Amazing to me -- I'd have never ever thought it!

I am deeply saddened to hear all of this Greg. I was living vicariously through you to a certain extent watching this car get built and flogged on the track. In the videos I noticed smoke billowing through the cab and thought it must just be race car ****. You and Aaron are my heroes in many ways persevering through devastating health issues and living your dream to the extent that you still can. I am so sorry that this dream didn't work out the way you planned and that you wound up with much less than you paid for.
