[QUOTE="ac427cobra, post: 10238157, member: 6247"] Seeing it seems you're a little uninformed about myself and the kit, I'll give you a little insight regarding the facts! Back in 2003 when I decided I had enough of those crappy rubber OEM bushings in my IRS, I shopped the internet for a solution. What I found was a guy by the name of Nick making a Delrin bushing kit for the IRS. MM had no kit, Griggs had no kit, Steeda, Kenny Brown and everyone else I checked had no kits either. The complete story can be found here: [url=http://www.fulltiltboogieracing.com/mystery_of_irs.htm]Mystery of IRS[/url] It also seems that you are uniformed about me getting permission from the SVTP Staff to offer the kit to some of my fellow 2000 Cobra R enthusiasts in the Cobra R forum of SVTP. These members were racing and open tracking their Cobra R's. This is after the then Cobra R moderator personally drove my car with the kit and was just as impressed as I was with the vast improvement in handling the new IRS demonstrated. Initially I only sold the kits to people I personally knew. I had no inventory. I sold kits as they were manufactured. So many people were impressed with the kit, word spread very fast and demand grew even faster. The insanely low prices were in the early stages of the kit. This was before the addition of industrial Hardcoat on the wear surfaces. Something MM doesn't offer. And before the grease fitting kit. Another thing not available from MM. Want subframe bushings that are not made out of crappy poly? You have to get them from FTBR as well! We offer ALL of these design and engineering improvements at a substantial cost savings to boot!!! Using my industry contacts from my day gig, in a way to design and develop a better engineered IRS bushing kit at a cost savings to Cobra owners is bad in [B]WHAT WAY[/B]?!?!?!?!:dw: It's also quite apparent you've somehow missed my post in this thread, post #43: Asking Jack to clarify his "disturbing accusation" about getting his posts deleted on SVTP! :dw: I personally went through each and every one of Jack's 54 posts and guess what I found? Not a single one of his posts were deleted by SVTP Staff. Sid (SVTP Owner) also confirmed my findings. Not only has Jack not answered my questions, he's also not posted since. I can assure you that your post, just like Jack's post, will be here for the duration. Although I somehow don't think your post will be as good of a sales tool for FTBR as Jack's post has been! I'd be glad to clear up any other mis-conceptions you may have regarding me, the kit or SVTP! :thumbsup::coolman::beer: [/QUOTE]
