i went to FIA a while back to meet Scammy because he was claiming to want to sponsor some Time Attack vehicles. the overall sense that i got was that he was a sleazebag and i wanted nothing to do with him. he wanted to find someone with deep pockets to promote his shop. i used to be in the industry and the "sponsored" prices he was quoting sounded like what i would sell at all day every day.

Wow I can't believe the stuff I'm hearing! The only reason I took my car there is because sam contacted me through here. I figured he must be a legit guy and wants to help me out.

I don't know what to expect when my car is finished, I'm really stressed now...

Nope sorry that deal has been out for a while. Everyone will have to wait for the deal to come back to get a free inspection.
