    VCA Drama: what are the known facts?

    The "only so much time" excuse doesn't fly with the questions regarding the raffle that refuse to be answered. Where was it held? Where was it licensed? Who drew it and who was present? Who (regulatory authority) oversaw it? Is there a record showing every ticket sold and where the money went...

    Need help with 2008 ACR rotors

    As far as the alignment, I had the same problem with my race car. Even if I used my 8ft race ramps to clear the nose, I would high-center at the top when going onto the rack. I found two ways around this. 1. Find an alignment shop with a pit instead of rack. 2. I actually backed my car onto...

    Need help with 2008 ACR rotors

    Replace the rings yourself and MAKE SURE to check your inner ebrake pads while you're doing it. There is a good possibility that the gouge on the inside of your rotor is from a worn out ebrake pad. Stupid, stupid design.

    Mopar "650HP" pkg installed

    You're doing it wrong!!! EVERYONE knows the best way to get the fastest lap times to build a ton of horsepower and hit the track! Experience, tires and brakes don't mean #$%^! ;)

    VCA Drama: what are the known facts?

    Along with a lot of other things, I hate that people say Chris is offering a "service" to the VCA, like he's doing everyone a favor. He was unemployed, handed a business, and used our money to start it. The VCA did him a service. He has no other job. Again, I have NO problem with people being...

    VCA Drama: what are the known facts?

    The highlighted portion is another major issue. Chris doesn't OWN #$%^. He WORKS FOR the VPA, which is OWNED by the VCA. How in the hell does he think it's OK to not supply ANY and ALL information that is asked for? Even if not to all members (as it should be), but certainly to the BOD.

    VCA Drama: what are the known facts?

    I have said it before and I guess will have to say it again. Passing a financial audit means nothing. It just means there is not outright theft going on. The question is what does the VPA make? Show the entire balance sheet and income statement, which unfortunately probably can't be trusted...

    VCA Drama: what are the known facts?

    Bob, I thought lawyers were better at reading comprehension. I never said any of the initial $50k was used to pay Chris. The $50k was used to start a business that was set-up/handed to him. My point was that if you were UNEMPLOYED and a deal to aquire parts/inventory at insanley low prices...

    Track Day Brakes for Beginner

    What others have said about the brake fluid and parking brake. Stock pads should have plenty of bite, but make sure there is PLENTY of pad left. When you start getting under 50%, you will start building up more heat. I can only get one weekend out of brand new set, as I use up about 50% during...

    VCA Drama: what are the known facts?

    Chris rising to the challenge? I do not know all the following as fact, but it is what I have garnered from people who have been proven trustworthy. At the time the VPA was formed, Chris was unemployed and the VCA loaned (now listed as "invested") the $50k to start it. If I was unemployed and...

    VCA Drama: what are the known facts?

    One thing left out of luc's post is the raffle. The questions regarding it are SIMPLE and require NO research, so they should have been answered long ago. Where was it held? Was it licensed? By who? Who oversaw it (the raffle, actual incoming funds, reported incoming funds, all tickets...

    VCA Drama: what are the known facts?

    The $150 doesn't mean crap to anyone here. It's the principle of certain people doing shady and very possibly illegal things. A lot of what has gotten out seems to be true, from the silence on those issues from even the new officers and BOD. The raffle is especially concerning and could...

    VCA Drama: what are the known facts?

    The VCA will never sue anyone. Even if they had the money, as ViperSmith said, everything would have to be put on the table in discovery. We all know that isn't going to happen. Hell, we can't even get simple answers to the raffle answered. Do you really think that is everything that's being...

    VCA Drama: what are the known facts?

    As far a Maurice being "invited" back, yes, he was technically told he could come back, but did you read the letter? It was more of a "we think we overstepped our bounds in getting rid of you, so to avoid being sued, you can come back" than a "we want you back" letter. I don't blame him for...

    VCA Drama: what are the known facts?

    Bingo! All we keep hearing is that things are getting fixed. That's great, but how about airing out the issues and what's having to be fixed? Plus, the quesitons regarding location, supervision, registration/legality of the raffle are all VERY easy questions to answer RIGHT NOW. So many...

    The 900 dollar license plate frame.

    The funny thing is that SMD's are actually cheaper than traditional LED lights. Maybe he's hoping people think that since it's a newer technology, they should be more expensive.

    "ALERT" Big problems with GEICO Insurance

    Shine, just to clarify so you don't think you're covered when you're not. If you wreck your car at a VOI or any VCA event that has "insurance" for the event, it DOES NOT cover your car. It's a liability policy. Just didn't want you to find out the hard way.

    "ALERT" Big problems with GEICO Insurance

    The part that still makes ZERO sense to me is that they wouldn't have covered you if something happened on the track anyway, so you being on the track is no risk to them. The ONLY person I could see getting upset about a track video (with no track insurance either) would be a financing...

    Suggestions on smoothing out ride on a 2008 ACR

    No offense, but that's the problem with buying a car because it "looks cool". It's made to be stiff and at home on the track. If you bought it to cruise around in, you'd have been much better off to buy a non-ACR. My vert rides retty smooth. Wanna trade? ;)
