Matt,
Cant thank you enough! Back in early 09, Matt and I started building our Camaro's around the same time. I occasionally ask him for suspension setup ideas and what he's running on his car. The last time we spoke, he informed me that we both have early production DSE sub frames and they shipped them with a smaller front sway bar than what is currently being delivered now. I was surprised and would have never found out, well it turns out he had a new thicker spare bar in his shop and offered it to me for nothing. Again thank you! I just installed it and cant believe how much flatter the car turns in and took out the body roll WOW! The bar is twice the thickness, the weight difference between the two bars has to be like 5 lbs of steel.
Dude your awesome :hail: - Thanks Rich

Yep, I call him at least once a week to see what parts he's giving away. I think everyone on here should do it too :D

Damn it! You're right! Didn't you get a set of tires from me last month? I can't even remember. I'm not very good at selling things. When Gregg bought a pair of tires from me I ended up losing money. Figure that one out..
Ron, I just hope that this whole routine pays off for me when you decide to sell your 4th or 5th set of wheels. Maybe, just maybe I'll get some preferential treatment :lol:

Matt, is this a concerted effort as part of your pre-Optima Marketing and PR campaign?

Selling stuff is over rated, especially when people try to work you down to half of what was already a reasonable listed price, and then they back out of the deal at the last minute.
It is much easier to just send things to guys like Rich. I sent the sway bar over, and he pulled off the return address and money just showed up in the mail a week later.

Rod, I'm just the guy that will send you parts. Need a splined sway bar from Speedway Engineering, or a couple sets of Hyperco springs? I've got you covered. Also, need some old tires to mock up. I have all of those in "inventory."
If you need cash, just send something over to Rich. :thumbsup:
