Well gents...long time no talk to a few of you.

I have been busy with some personal things and changing my path severely. I had a "minor cardiac event" (as my doctor said) about a month ago. Since then I have sold everything in the shop, and decided to get back into a job I held for a short time years ago. It is a great paying stress-less job and I ABSOLUTELY love it! I have not been this happy or close to my family in a while and it feels great. The stresses of owning your own performance shop is not for an old dude like me and I will let the younger crowd have fun with it.

Anyway...just wanted to check in and say HI to everyone!

Kenny,
   I am glad you are ok. Family is more important then anything in the world. It has been a pleasure doing business with you and an honor to know you through here and on the phone. Take care of yourself and family.
                                     Best wishes to you and your family,

 Kenny, Glad you are doing well now. I myself know exactly how much stress turning wrenches can be, especially if you are doing everything yourself... Answering the phone, selling jobs, buying parts, customer relations and not to mention people who run out of $$$ before you even finish the job. Those are just a few of the things we half to deal with on a daily basis. I have seen many guys start their own business, and eventually go back to the stealerships that have fuked them over for many years because it's a whole lot less stress and they don't half to work late or deal with customers. I am glad you have got things back on track and I hope you and the family enjoy the upcoming holidays, together...     later man

Sorry your health took a turn for the worse, but some find it just helps them turn a new leaf.

Althou I am saddened a bit. I was planning on doing a TGP swap into my AWD when I moved to Denver. Might still have to chew your ear a bit for it if its ok?
