    My Observations about VCA - This is NOT Good

    I honesty have no issue of people being paid for their time in either club. AS LONG AS IT IS DONE ABOVE BOARDS AND OPENLY DISCLOSED.

    My Observations about VCA - This is NOT Good

    And as far as Maurice disclosing income received Chrysler like Chris was asked to. How in the hell are you even TRYING to make these look like the same thing? If Maurice does independent contracting for Chrysler and gets paid, why is it anyone's business how much he is paid? We don't own him...

    My Observations about VCA - This is NOT Good

    Bob, obviously I still didn't make it simple enough for you to follow, so I'll try one more time. After this, I don't think I can dumb it down for you any further. I will use a number of $30k for Herb's salary (I have not seen anything factual that this is a real number. I'm using a number as...

    My Observations about VCA - This is NOT Good

    Another class act answer there Paul. Take a shot at the founder of the VCA because the VCA is in such a mess. As I said above, I actually want the VCA to get things fixed and eventually we end up with one united club again. With the current leadership's inability to still answer simple...

    My Observations about VCA - This is NOT Good

    First off, I did not say anything about Jonb's business vs the VPA. Secondly, the skill set problem is your illogical logic. Let me break it down even simpler for you and just deal with one issue at a time. VCA used to pay Herb. VPA now pay Herb. ALL PROFITS FROM VPA GO DIRECTLY TO THE VCA...

    My Observations about VCA - This is NOT Good

    I have no idea what you even mean by the above statement. It is a known fact that Herb's salary being moved to the VPA was somehow a savings for the VCA. If the VPA is owned by the VCA, then how did that actually save any money? And, as Jon said, it sure looks like you shifted expenses from a...

    My Observations about VCA - This is NOT Good

    It looks like we'll have to agree to disagree on another topic here. You can call it building a business, but if you GAVE a monkey $50k of SOMEONE ELSE'S money and a lot of initial inventory at scrap value prices, even the monkey could make money. I'm also not saying that Chris doesn't deserved...

    My Observations about VCA - This is NOT Good

    I actually just bought a few parts for mine. I paid slightly more for tires from Luke, but I found every other part for a lower price than the VPA offers (including the VENOM discount, when applicable). I'm not saying I could find EVERY part that they offer for a lower price, but there's...

    Tire Rack

    Yep! Just bought a set a SS's a couple of weeks ago. He was actually a little more expensive than VPA, but I know where I'd rather send my $$, and Luke is the way I went.

    What are the VCA plans for events etc. for 2014?

    Been away for a while and staying out of this, but I have to comment about your statement above. Most of the people (specifically Lee and CM) have been "going through hell" due THEIR ACTIONS, not other people's. Unless you consider the bringing to light of their actions to be the real issue...

    What are the VCA plans for events etc. for 2014?

    Notice that the renewal email I saw a copy of only stated that you would get "Viper Magazine". There was no mention of the number of issues, so unlike this year where people got screwed bc the VCA was out of money to print and mail them, next year all they have to do is send out 1. As long as...

    1 of 1 2013 Viper - Someone needs to buy this!!

    $35k/year to maintain and store it? Where in the hell are they keeping it? I'll put it in the garage, maintain it (battery tender, change the fluids yearly, was and cover it) and not touch it, for a mere $20k/year.

    Turning rotors. Myths and truths

    You can reset the sensors yourself. I can't recall how off the top of my head, but I know I never took it in to have it done. Basically the pad has a little cut-out in it that the sensor fits into. Once the pads wear down and the sensor touches the metal of the rotor, it sets off the warning...

    Turning rotors. Myths and truths

    Oops! Missed the lower case "l" in your first post. SON OF A BITCH! Those things ARE expensive! I turned up some mid to high $700 prices with a quick search, so it's better than the dealer, but I had no idea there were brakes out there that are that expensive for the cheapest ones (that aren't...

    White SRT-10 with my new C7 Z51 White

    Love them both, and I hate to admit it, but I honestly think the new Vette is a bad-ass looking car (even better than the Viper of any Generation), but I just personally prefer the "edgy" styling. I think Chevy hit a complete homerun on the C7, and I'm sure the Z versions are going to look...

    Turning rotors. Myths and truths

    For cheap, street only stuff, Ebay is your friend. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_from=R40&_nkw=2008+c63+brake+rotor&_sop=15 Your stock rotors might be 2-piece (I'm not intimately familiar with the newer Benz's), but even if they are, I don't see a reason you couldn't switch to a...

    Turning rotors. Myths and truths

    When I had my E55, Merc said that none of their rotors are meant to be turned. Actually a lot of newer cars say the their rotors are not meant to be turned. My understanding is that the motors are basically made to the min thickness when new. This is mainly done to keep costs and weight down...

    Remove Tire Pressure Sensors W/O Dismounting Tires?

    If the tire was balanced with the sensor mounted inside the wheel, wouldn't you then throw off the balance by removing sensor (weight and placement)?

    I mean WTF...

    Pretty sick, especially the sound! To be honest, if they weren't going to be so commonplace in the next year, I'd be all over the new Vette. I actually saw one by the house the other day that looked incredible! I don't know if it was all factory, but it was white with a CF rear spoiler (just a...

    Raffle car delivered

    Like others have said, congrats to the person with the car and I hope it works out OK in the long run. I don't think anyone ever said that the car didn't exist or anything like that. There is still zero proof that the raffle was licensed and legal, where the drawing was held, who witnessed...

    Received the VCA membership "pitch letter" today.

    WOW! Not that I was going to renew (or re-join) the VCA anyway, but what kind of morons approve a letter like that to even go out? That was a serious grasping at straws (and a LOT of complete bs, slander and 10% truths), and comes off as completely desperate and beyond unprofessional. The...

    I remember when I posted an add for a Viper for sale in the classifieds.....

    I was thinking the same thing. Back to threatening people?

    Laser isn't undetectable, and I hope George knows the difference between a laser gun and binoculars. lol
