TheMethLab is infamous around these parts
Farnbacher Loles

Just got back from Farnbacher Loles. Shop isn't quite empty yet but there is already a for lease sign outside and stuff is getting cleaned up. Some of the staff is sticking around to help old customers get info and records and retrieve old parts. Seems that Spencer is still handling the customer race program but not sure out of what shop. He wasn't there so I couldn't get any more info other than that. At least I got my wheels. I'll miss that place.

That sucks! That is Dominick's dad right? He was racing with Tafel for a while and that entire family is a great group of people.
