Yea, so honest....

Great vender to buy from! Very honest and awesome prices;)

That he copies other people's ideas, farms the fab and product out, then resells as his.
I believe it is just another form of plagiarism, myself..:frown:

(Can be proven if requested.)

(Kip knows what I am referring to and if he does not, he can contact me to be set straight)


As for in general, He is a good guy.
 
Kip is #1 in my book... one of the few TR vendors that I will deal with.

The "forever charged NASCAR battery", trik converters, indestructable trannys... The list of achievements goes on and on...

Not related to Al Gore by chance?:rolleyes:

Sounds like time to enforce your patent on said product.
 
Now are we going to have to get ugly ? What would make vendor come out in a public forum and bash someone that buys and sells his over priced too pretty to use parts. Kip is and will always be the only vendor I will use.Come on you Ohio and Wis. TSM racers!!!Stand up for your vendor!!!!Let me see, who made that drum???? SMclay?? Im tired of the pot calling the kettle black!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Like I said to a guy today..

Kip is a good guy to deal with. I have no problem with his abilities and/or service. Great guy. That is not what I was referring to. I am NOT bashing him in the TR community, just for a product he copied and is selling that we thought up and put alot of time into. As for all else, good guy to deal with, will deliver on time and has a pretty good reputation. The gentleman I spoke to today will even attest to this. I still believe he is a good guy to deal with. As for all your guy's other claims, do not speak till you KNOW. Even the owner of this board has seen what some of you are accusing me of not doing. I , in NO WAY , want to , or desire to start a war. I will not participate in one either.
I just wanted Kip to know I wasn't too happy. (About this one situation)
That is all!!!
I would not hesitate to do business with him on all of his other products and services. Period!
Nothing else to say and don't you guys turn this into something it is not.
Just not happy about one product.

Kip is good people otherwise.

END OF STORY!

Have you ever tried a e-mail to him??? I just think you went about it all wrong. If you had a concern with Kip you should have used a PM.You know you do start your own wars!!!

Bruce I don’t understand why you posted this. When you post in public forum for all to see you are bashing.

I sent you a product for free when you were in need and you copied it. You know what it is. BTW it is a very nice piece. You have never seen me post about it till now.

If you want someone to know that you have a grievance try using the telephone.
 
I dont know much about any grievances between Bruce and Kip, so I can't say much about that. I can tell you a lil about Kip though.

I know he does a lot of high end work on TSM projects and he is extremely knowledgeable on these cars. Every time I talk to him or go see him I learn a little more about these cars. As for him wanting to make money, we all do. He is rebuilding my motor for me, he has helped me out on a lot of things with the rebuild and in doing so has saved me quite a bit of money in the process. When I ruined my crankshaft in my car, I asked anyone around here who knew anything about turbo buicks, who does the best work? I got a couple different people but everyone said if you wanted it done right take it to Kip. If I wanted it done faster I could have taken it elsewhere, but everyone said the person who would do the best job was Kip. To me that says alot about a person. When a person will tell a friend or a total stranger that is the guy to see.

Kip has went to alot of trouble to work out trades for parts I didn't need to save me money on everything from pistons to crankshafts. He has truly gone the extra step to take care of me. I am in the military and Kip understands I don't have a $5,000 budget to work with and he has worked hard to get the best deal for me every step of the way. As far as I am concerned that is truly what "Going fast with class" is all about. As long as I am in this area Kip will have my business.
 
Dammit!! I am not bashing Kip!

I am just unhappy with what he did with one particular part!
He's not a Bad guy.
I am not calling him names.
I am not swearing or threatening him.
I do not dislike the guy.
Hell, I refer people to him.
You all get mad at family members from time to time for things they do, but you still care and love them, right?
So it is possible to be upset with somebody and not start a so called war or huge blown way out of proportion deal, just a confrontation, if you wish.
I am not out to hurt Kip's business and again, am not bashing Kip as a whole. Just this one instance.


Maybe Lonnie was right... I should have tried again on the phone as when I called I got a message and never a call back.
I should have stuck to that.

Well, you will think what you think

To all the people that have had something nice to say thanks it make me happy that people realize that I try.


Now onto you Bruce, I have no idea what was your agenda by getting on a thread that someone started about me to say something nice and turning it into another poor Bruce thread. I saw that you said that you called but I never got a message from you on my machine but even if you did you could have PMed me ( I do not check PMs very often but still better than what you pulled here) or you could have emailed me. Anything would have been a better choice than this.
What I do see that you achieved was making my phone ring off the hook today with people telling me some dude was picking on me on TB.com and there comments ranged from "hey do you want me to gut him like a pig or what" to "don't respond to that idiot as no one pays any attention to him anyways". Another thing you achieved is that in the past I have spent money with you and I promise that will never happen again.
You say I can call you well that is not going to happen but you are welcome to call me or if you choose we can have at it right here in a public forum, balls in your court.

See ya, Kip
