Innocent until proven guilty, even with obama.

 

i hope that isnt true, especially this time of year

 

Maybe it's a return to the "drug dealer financed" IMSA racing of the 80's.

 

Can you say "John Paul Jr. and Sr."?

 

I sure hope this isnt true. I always liked their team, their shop, and their cars.

 

Damn, their site went down/offline too....hope it is just a coincidence.

 

Don't think so. Loles appears to be in serious trouble.

 

very typical in these tough times.

 

very, very serious

 

Instant recall of Bill and Don Whittington too......., and T&R Racing. The 80's and early 90's IMSA racing will never be equaled for graft.

 

Chris - if indeed FB is kaput, who you going to use locally for service? I hear good things about DeMan.

 

I was thinking about that very topic......they were the only true nationally competitive race shop in the area. Let me ponder our options.

 

kip harris who was the street ride guru at farnbacher is at manhattan motorsports now, based in roslyn, ny. look him up, same service/set up as f/loles.

 

Reviving this old thread - Just heard that Kip is no longer with Manhattan Motorsports. Great guy and knew his stuff. The search begins for another shop to use.

If anyone hears of Kip turning up someplace let me know.
