Last time I checked,this was still an open forum,and AFAIK,Chad is free to post and share his thoughts & info with everyone here.If you dont like it,move on to another post,no need to criticise someone like that.:noway:
Its nice to know that some people are doing there best to help the North American economy in hard times as the last year or two.Maybe if everyone did that,companies such as Barry Grant would still be in business.
But its easy enough for some of the people in our hobby to buy cheaper imported goods,especially when you pick up some of the car mags and there are full or half page colour ads from the import manufacturers.And the same mags use those parts in their builds and help drive another nail in our economy.

But aint ya from canada,eh? Our economy,eh.LOL
Check the map,Canada is in North America too.And our economy is very closely tied into the US economy.If you dont believe that,go sit at a US/Canada border crossing and watch the frieght that goes both ways across the border.

And heres something else Mr 461RAT,that has to be one of the more ignorant,rude and narrow minded statements that I've seen in quite some time.

I am getting pretty tired of the rags using chinese parts in their builds, it sends to message that its ok to use them,well its not ask barry grant, crane and pete jackson,

Don't skimp, if you got into this hobby to get off cheap you picked the wrong hobby!

Speaking of cabin fever...we got a much needed reprieve from the weather today. It was well into the 60's. I drove around with the windows down and wearing a T shirt. It was awesome!

Put a new set of plugs in the car and fired it up for the first time this year. Good day, good day! Course...its supposed to snow monday with some accumulation, but the break was still nice.

Time to start ordering parts again real soon, and I agree its good practice to buy American when possible.
