Don't post here often, but have been here for many years. I was active when building my car, more a lurker now living through others builds. I do not know Greg or Ron. Literally other than their posts I wouldn't know either if they walked up to me on the street.

But I will say this, how people act is usually a dead give away to their beliefs and intent.

Greg has always seemed genuine, passionate and like me, a car guy but not an expert.

Ron has always come across as an expert, some of his posts clearly show he really knows his stuff. Way beyond my comprehension. But very self promoting. I'm all for advertising and building a business, but real experts don't proclaim their expertise, they let others give them that tag. Let their actions speak for themselves (by the way not saying they don't ... it's just my perception of what I see).

It's shame when two friends fall out and it ends badly publicly, but as a business person myself, ethics and integrity are paramount to me. I doubt we will ever know the full and honest truth and there is always liability in a split from both sides. But I for one would prefer a supplier to the industry be exposed for less than ideal practices than more people get burnt.

For Ron, even if there is a lot that isn't true, or even if he feels like it isn't true. If this is the wake up call that gets his business back on track and he over delivers (as stated in an earlier post) then that's good for the industry.

There are no mistakes, only lessons.
