"Finally out of the header closet"
Steve let's shed some light on your obvious B.S. You called to purchase headers and to be set up as a dealer which all parties involved agreed to. We all really wanted you to succeed as a dealer. You purchased the entire generation line of ARH Viper headers which at the time we thought was odd, but now it makes perfect sense. Since you were close by I decided to drive down and hand deliver your set of ACRX Headers, shake your hand and thank you for your business. We talked about our companies & products like most businessmen would and left on good terms.
Truth: Toddy, I was already set up a a reseller for American Racing Headers, I was advised by Nick that in order to have Gen 4 headers, I had to deal through you, I did, I listed them at your demanded list price of $2795.00.
Fast forward to our meeting several months later in Petaluma, Ca when I delivered to you a set of Gen 4 turn outs with high flow cats in a 3" finished pipe configuration per your request. You had the entire ACR aero package in the back of your pick-up truck and told me flat-out that you needed to hurry up and get those parts packaged, over to fedex and ship them out to China that day, because of your fabricator's deadline to copy and produce the Gen 4 factory hood, splitter & wing in time for the VOI. At which point you asked me to keep your manufacturing location off the record, which I thought unusual since most vendors are proud of their manufacturing process and boast a bit. In addition you had the entire line of headers that you purchased from us in the back of your truck along with several other header brands. I then asked you point blank are you planning to send our headers to China as well, which you replied not at all. I stressed to you it would not be acceptable and I would purchase the headers back from you to avoid any future issues. You assured me that you would not and infact pointed out that you had much respect for the time & effort that our companies had invested in the ACRX headers.
Truth: Yes, you met me in Petaluma with the Turnouts I had ordered as you had also shipped the 2.5 inch ones incorrectly as I had ordered 3" and you brought the replacement mis-shipped wrong side collector as well. I did not have what you say in my truck, I had a Wing that had been made at a composite shop in Missouri, and showed it to you.
VOI rolls around and your hanging with us at the dinners, the events and at the track. While all this time your were basically a "Snake in the Grass". It was more disappointing than anything for it to come to light that you are what you are.
Suspiciously you would always call around the time when I was helping diagnose fitment issues with Viper owners that had purchased your knock off headers and were having problems. Now I see that you were on a fishing expedition trying to establish if I had figured out that it was your product.
One of these days you will have to post up the names of these people that called you, because frankly I do not believe the rhetoric and Sam corrected you on this line of deception already
I offered to fix a dent for a VCA members ACRX header only to find out they were fakes. We realized that the headers had come from you when the return waybill listed you as the recipient. I called you multiple times to discuss this situation only to have you avoid my calls.
TRUTH: Your post was at 12:00 + on Feb 25th, this cell phone statement from the day before shows that I talked to you a number of times that day , as I stated in my post; I did not avoid your calls as you state. That is your number isn't it? It matches the one in your rotating ad here on the VCA site. Is this another mistruth?

Are you going to address the rest of the mis-statements of facts?
My comment still stands, you have taken a non-issue and made a mountain out of a mole hill to promote yourself.
