Actually, I am seriously getting sick of all the petty bullshit on this
List!! I know I am not alone in this either.... How about a return to the
days where we actually talked about roadster problems or shared our favorite
roadster stories? If we can't find that again soon, I am fairly certain
there will be another List up and running soon!
As to the bullshit... so what? Lee got a better offer and took it. Chris
R is not out any money, but he's got a bad case of hurt pride. I say, GET
OVER IT! There are more Empi rims out there... I just don't want to read
about it anymore, unless it's Chris asking the List if anyone knows where he
can find 2 Empi rims!
