New- GMR AFX Upright Packages

[Jay@GMR]

When Jason and I talked a few years ago, I thought I remeber him saying that he had a design engineer working for him and that he used CATIA. I though that was cool since I use CATIA every day. I know Jason is not the engineer and I assume you are not the engineer either.

Bryce,
Fair enough, Jason does draw on CATIA and quite possibly mayhave mentioned a design engineer to you before The GMR entered the PT world exclusively.All products that you see on our site have been a combined effort between Jasonand me along with real world trial and error. Not bad for two non-engineers!

Best to luck to Jason and the GMR.

All I'm saying Jay is I have been a fan of your products from day one back on Dezert Rangers. In my honest opinion, I think its chicken **** with partnering with CPP.

You are right I dont have a product line and I dont feel the need to divulge my background but we would never consider putting a ching chong knock off pump onto one of our million dollar Siemens motors.

Again, I look forward to running your products, I'm not saying I would not buy your product at all. Just poor taste.

Hello Matt,

You are most certainly entitled to your opinion.

But let me ask you this……

Below is a list of companies (and there are many more) that are teamed with CPP in one way or another, and many with their components on CPP products.

So are you telling me that all these companies have made poor business/marketing decisions, and do not know what they are doing by publically teaming with CPP?

Did you call/email/PM all the companies below and give them your free business advice as you felt you needed to with us? Or did you just decide to single out The GMR for some unknown reason?

• Holley
• Mast
• Eddie Motor Sports
• Porterbuilt
• Wilwood
• Baer
• Brembo
• Flaming River
• QA1
• TCI
• Heidts
• Bilstein
• Currie
• Caltracs
• Unisteer
• Ididit
• Lokar
• ridetech
• GMR

I hope you read this and see that your comments were given without any serious thought or respect to The GMR.

Regards, Jay

my new buddy Matt sent me a pm today regarding the new uprights.

Jay, I guess with Matt's GMR 4th quarter report and '13 1st quarter marketing forecast, you'll be shutting down soon ? when is the going out of business sale start ?

Didn't want to clutter of Jays thread even more and I decided to not make you look ignorant in the thread as well but wanted to make mention of it to you.

No where did I ever say their actions would close their doors. I will give you benefit of doubt, that you lack reading comprehension. I was stating that it was in bad taste to take an american made product and push it with a chinese counter part to increase sales.

$2500 worth of GMR products bolted to a $300 spindle? LOL

good day sir,

Holy crap were still having a pissing match over this..matt...who gives a s¤@t if it's a 38$ spindles or 4000$ spindle...why don't you consider the brake kits from much larger companies I might add...that are designed and engineered to go on to stock spindles......which are quite often made off shore...or bought used...does that mean that they are also garbage? Accept the facts bad decisions were made and you feel screwed. Then we can all move on and buy whatever we want from whom ever we want.

[dontlifttoshift]

Everybody did move on......2 months ago.

[raustinss]

Yeah thanks donny where would I be without you and your level of genius....is it possible I wrote that then looks at the date...and realized I was behind the times on this one ?

[dontlifttoshift]

Yep, that is possible. A quick edit would have taken care of that. I may not be a genius, but I know what day it is.

[raustinss]

Or possibly I wrote it...posted it and then thought...ahh hell nobody will care...thanks again for the advice..I guess next time I'm fabricating something at work you can help...being so bright and all...never making a very simple mistake. I would. Like to think that both of us are generally smart and don't need people to point out flaws so let's just chalk this up as a oversight on my behalf and you win..

[dontlifttoshift]

I dig your brand of sarcasm, so I think you'll get this. You said it best.

Accept the facts bad decisions were made and you feel screwed. Then we can all move on

The point of my post after yours was not to point out your mistake, it was to remind the next guy that the subject was beat already. It worked, because we are the only two boneheads yammering on in this thread. You took offense, that was not my intention.

[raustinss]

LOL donny. I completely agree and I like your brand of sarcasm as well...and yeah we are the only two boneheads still going on....truce...let's have a beer and declare this beaten horse beyond dead
