[Fot] Poll: What is your favorite source of racing parts and supplies.

All things being equal it is important to support our niche suppliers.
BFE, TSI, GoodParts and many others come to mind, as two that  I buy from.
I also have to consider Sales Tax in the calculation.  Summit has an
operation in Texas so everything I buy from them is taxed 8.25%.  My
daughter lives a few miles away from the showroom and I have made multiple
trips to pick up stuff, tax and all. It is a cool place to visit.

 I think I have used about 90% of the mentioned suppliers over the years.
and my list is very familiar: I out them in the order of the dollars I
guess I've spent with each.

Speedway Motors
Summit Racing
Jeg's
Pegasus
PitStop USA

We, as a group, are probably not as big a customer base niche for the
Triumph suppliers who focus on street cars but they do carry parts we
need.  I used to buy everything I could from the Roadster Factory but my
business with them shrinks unless I am building a car. They are still my
favorite supplier but I have used Moss more lately. I can find some stuff I
can't get elsewhere from Moss UK and do the occasional business with
Racetorations and Cambridge Motorsports.
