Hello:

I have had two Red Tops in my Camaro, "Lateral-1", since I bought it from Mark. I got about 8 months out of the first one, and replaced it under warrantee. The second one I have to continually keep on a charger or it will be dead within a week.

It's great they are sealed, but the Performance vs. an Interstate Battery is a slam dunk for Interstate. (Sorry, but it really ticks me off to continually have to screw around with it.

Please, Please, make a better product even if it cost more.

I keep and Red Top AND a Yellow Top in my Truck, because I cannot take a chance of being stranded out in the middle of nowhere in 105*. They are both charged continually.

I'm not trying to dog your product at all, just trying to be honest. The place I have my cars serviced when I need a new battery try to talk me out of a Red Top for another brand, because evidently they get a lot of returns and it is a headache for them as a dealer.

I ALWAYS will support the sponsors of this Hobby, but I would like to meet you half way. I will pay more for one that will last, and not leave me stranded, if you will build it.

Dollars for fixing up our car are FINITE, please keep this in mind.

Thanks for your continued sponsorship of this hobby, I truly appreciate it, but We DO need a better product for our cars.

Thanks, and I look forward to doing business with you in the future.
