I have been a member since 04.When the split happened i was on hiatus for a few years so I missed all of it. I went to log in one day and of course I was a member of 2 different sites.So I guess I'll just ask it: What happened???

It seems to me that Brad has said to either buy it from him or its going away. Now my fear here is that he will actualy do this, and we will loose all this information and people.

Could we possibly start a "get the 914 community back together" fund? I'd be down for donating.

Patssle, A few years ago we used to be the 914club, back when everything was roaring, Brad and Andy were partners. Andy wanted to keep the site a free and welcome environment and Brad saw a buisness oportunity and wanted to proceed with it. They went there separate ways and split the web site. Both retaining all the information.

None of us wanted the split, Not even Brad or Andy, yet they couldnt agree.

Posted by: grantsfo Mar 25 2010, 02:14 PM

Is there really that much more content over there? I think not. At least not $5K worth. I think just let it die a natural death. That will consolidate 914 entusiasts here as I dont think there is anyone assed brained enough to buy a 914 chat board for $5000! But maybe I have underestimated value of a rusty car forum where people like me post? That would indicate my posts add value to a site. ...I dont think so!

Does the drama never end . I wish everyone would just let whatever their issues with Brad are go. I'm not you & don't know what problems you had. I really don't care what they were either. Does rehashing them do anything to benefit either site? I consider Brad a good friend. He has always treated me with respect & been great to work with. I just wish all this crap would go away.

I didn't know if that was an ok thing to do. I just want the folks that I chat with about race related stuff to have a place to continue doing what we love to do. Chat about race related endeavours. It's slowly moving away from 914 related chat. Just AX, club racing, etc... The site is not intended to be 914 content driven and I didn't want to step on any toes.

Posted by: Jake Raby Mar 25 2010, 09:19 PM

Looks like my phone call with Brad pushed him over the edge yesterday..

Five weeks ago I bought a Boxster hard top from one of Brad's customers in So Cal.. Brad agreed to do us both a favor and ship the top, crate it and all of that.. Of course I doubted it would ever happen, because Brad has NEVER fulfilled an obligation to me in the 10 years I've been talking to him, but I did it anyway..

After a few text messages and kicks in the ass from the seller Brad over and over again told me and the seller that the top would leave "No later than next Monday" or it'll leave Tuesday, I promise".. Yesterday another customer that was also waiting for his top to be shipped posted on Brad's Boxsterspec site bitching because he'd been waiting with excuses for 4 months. I finally had enough because Blake and I have to get this car on track in early summer and we already missed opportunities, so I make another post stating that I refused to wait 4 months and that Brad shouldn't obligate to things he could not live up to.

My response was bold, to the point and fairly abrasive, but I really didn't give a damn and still don't.. That post prompted a phone call from Brad in which I restated everything in my post online and commenced to tell him just how sorry it was to lie and make false promises to people. The phone call ended with some four letter expletives and I slammed the phone down..

15 minutes later the Boxster Spec site was taken down and all this other soap opera drama began.

I guess he couldn't handle the truth, he finally pissed off the one person that would tell him exactly like it is and not give a shit what he thought about it..

Like they say, if you can't handle the heat get out of the kitchen... or shut down the forum, or give it to nasa, or sell the forum on ebay... Either way, go change your tampon and take a damn midol.

Brad has asked for EVERY bit of difficulty he has ever experienced in this industry.

When he reads this or when one of his buddies sees it and copies and pastes it, just let the fact be known that I meant every damn thing I told him on the phone and I don't give a damn what he thinks about that..

So, felonious man busted for automotive theft lies to more people, after years of lying to people, puts up website for sale with outrageous asking price, people are surprised.


Garbage in, garbage out. You can smell shady on that guy from over the internet.

My offer of 200$ for 914club stands, as it did before.


The only reason I would call this guy, would be to prank call the hell out of him.

i would never think of letting any of my cash near him, or do any sort of business transaction with him involving more than like 150-200$. Then if he did not deliver, i'd have an excuse to beat his ass.

Did I mention I hate thieves, especially car thieves?

This community has a lot of what I think are too nice of people sometimes.

If this guy operated in the VW/Honda world, he would have turned up unconcious in an alley missing a lot of teeth or some digits/appendages.

Posted by: flippa Mar 26 2010, 08:36 AM

I got back into 914's just after all the drama unfolded. I don't really know nor ever really cared about what caused the split. I don't know Brad; never had any dealings with him & really can't say anything bad.

I joined both sites but only lurk here. I didn't like the club site because it kind of felt like the Brad show. I find it amazing that the guy has almost 56,000 posts on 914club. Kind of creepy; he is always there!

I think that he may have a problem; he spends way too much time f-ing around online IMAO .

Just think about this for a minute. If Brad spent 3 minutes (average) per post between reading & responding, he has been online full time 8 hours per day for 350 days . THe three minute per post is probably way conservative, it probably is double or triple that amount of time on average. And that is just posting on the club site! That's a whole bunch of wasted time over the past 8 years.

Not that I am one who should be throwing stones; I am f-ing off at work right now . The difference is that my customers are not calling me all pissed off looking for their stuff.

Hey! Shut that thing off!!!! You damn kids spend way too much time playing on that gosh-darn computer internet thingie !!!! All that darn texty-mc-texting & tweeting & blogging & such! Complete waste of time!!!!

Hey Brad, step away from the computer & get some work done!

Jake, maybe this will free up some of his time & you will see that top.

Someone here that could set up an escrow fund with the purpose of bringing the 2 sites back together and retire the club name? We could put in what we what and if the money isn't enough to buy, then refund all. Cash, Check by mail or paypal +3%? Personally I'd like just one site but would like access to the extra technical and posts that were on club.

Someone want a few tech articles? cut and paste works wonders. And you should only need the author's permission, not the website owner's.

Any chance of getting a regional section on the forum if and when the site is taken down? If you go to the 914club site you can see alot of the post are from guys in the Northeast. Over here it's alot of west coast posts. Sadly the northeast post get lost over here really fast. I think Ray taking over as moderator has done alot to keep the 914club going as long as it has.

Just and idea.

As far as Brad goes I've met him a few times and he seems like a nice enough guy.

oh exactly, either URL would route to 1 site which is why I think the $5k is stupid expensive.

Anybody remember the crap I had to go thru to get my $$ on the goody store fiasco? That was a LOT of fun....

Posted by: flipb Mar 26 2010, 01:45 PM

I joined World long after the split and only found out about Club afterwards. I have no vested interest, and for the record, I think there's plenty of content over here and don't know what would be gained by bringing over their content.

However... just for and , I took a look at a Google search for Porsche 914.

Two thoughts:
1. Maybe we should start a campaign where members navigate to the site via a Google search instead of their bookmarks (or directly entering the URL) to drive up our page rank
2. Are we still the "Fastest growing" community for 914s? Or can we now call ourselves the Largest community...

Posted by: zymurgist Mar 26 2010, 01:49 PM

I've read the threads here and there and I've got to think, does it really matter any more? Brad is getting out. Some people will cheer, others will be sad to see him go. I don't know him, so I don't really care one way or another.

That is what everyone says until he screws them. He is a very convincing person and a great talker. He makes you think he is the nicest guy in the world and rips you off. I have a list of designers and engineers and race prep guys that tell me to stay away from him and have told me what this guy has done to them.

Jon do you have first hand knowledge of these offenses Brad has made? If you haven't personally been screwed by him. How about you let the people that have blast him. Blasting someone completely from heresay is what I hate on not just this but any site. I like people voicing their experiences they have with vendors or anyone 914 related. Just get's old having people blast someone they personally don't know or have done business with. This is not meant as a personal shot Jon. I mean this in a general sense. It feels like junior high gossip

There are copies floating around on the internet. Fair use law says as long as you are downloading for your own use and not resale you are legal. It may be that the poster has violated copyright law although the time period should have run on any copyright by now but you would not be.
Search this site or the other one. this was a hot topic about 3 or 4 years ago and the URL for the site should be in that thread.

I am and always have been committed to one 914 club. Now that it is possible I am sure that we could make it happen. Imagine the strength if everyone in the world with a 914 chatted here!

Can you get a message too him?

Please tell him that Brad Roberts hosts Jeff Gamroths website and is physically working right now to implement an ecomm for Jeff's site?

Maybe my relationship with Jeff is something he has NO clue about?

Posted by: Phoenix 914-6GT Mar 26 2010, 06:09 PM

I have a clue about it but don't know why it would matter. I haven't heard anything from Gamroth nor do I know him.

Posted by: Dr Evil Mar 26 2010, 06:21 PM

I was talking with a local Porsche good guy today, he brought up Brad and one other person on here (no names, no need to start shit) and he had all kinds of similar stuff to report about B-rad. Interesting thing was, he had no idea of this thread. Interesting.

I think it's great that we have a place where we can go and talk about things, 914 car related, 914 business related etc, if you don't like the topic, no one is forcing you to read it. When things happened in the past, we talked about it in our forum, quite a few of us helped out with Brad's bailout etc. now, all of sudden we can't talk about it? I'm glad that people talk about their experiences with vendors, etc. It sounds to me that when Jon and Z did provide the proof that was asked for, some people didn't want to hear it.

You can't paint any site with a broad stroke. If you spend enough time anywhere, you get to know folks and make your own "friends"....

Well I am a very early 914club member and Brad has never done anything to personally upset me. Nor has anyone here, or at ClubNARP for that matter.

Therefore, I refuse to get my panties in a wad about this current drama but I would be willing to put up some bucks towards a unification of members, domains and content if such a thing is attempted and the approach seems solid.

This thread is worthless. It solves nothing, furthers nothing, and satisfies no one. I feel sorry for anyone that has posted here that gets satisfaction from running a guy into the ground. If people here dislike the other site so much, why is there so much being posted about its demise? I am surprised at most of you and your behavior. It reinforces what has gone wrong with sites, and why I realize most of these posts are truly worthless. IF I wanted to hear (or see) this kind of a soap opera, I would go to the local barber shop to hear the old cronies spin their tales.

I have no futher words to describe this, except sad.

I don't disagree with you about running a guy into the ground. I've tried to avoid posting anything that might be construed as such myself.

IMO however, what's really sad and reinforces what has gone wrong with the sites is the fact that the club site had to offered up to the highest bidder. Right here in this thread you called worthless there would seem to be enough people posting that would like to purchase it apparently in order to reunite the sites again. If this thread brings attention to a buyer or brings together a group of people that could purchase the club site and the domain for that purpose, than it's far from worthless.

I must say, I was extremely disappointed when the two sites split. Would bringing both sites together make it one again? I don't know. I have been thinking about this for while, Brad made a major difference to the 914 owners through out the world. There are other sites that have tried and failed, and sites (such as this one) that have been able to continue on and provide 914 owners the ability to share a little part of themselves, research info to help them achieve their goals and socialize. In my mind, no other person has moved the 914 community forward (especially in the past 8 years) like Brad has, despite his faults perceived or not.

We have seen relationships started, falter, rekindled, and outright destroyed. How we go about this is up to us. To forgive and forget must not be one of the ideals taught to 914 owners, because we have multiple year feuds going on here over what? When we are on our death bed, none of this will matter, but the thought that our search for true grace was never met, will.

Posted by: Brando Mar 27 2010, 01:45 PM

1 site would make this place a lot better.

Then I wouldn't have to go to 3 or 4 other "914 related" websites to get the info I need, should I be getting another 914...

Let's see...
» 914 World
» 914 Club
» Club NARP
» AX Paddock

...

How many more after this?

I am one of the few supporters of Brad. Flame me all you want but for me he has been a genuine guy.

My only reason for posting here has been that the idea of uniting under one roof is something that I downright would love to see. However Brad has already found a buyer for the club, someone who owns a few forums and someone who doesnt appear to be from the club. This saddens me in a way because the possibility of uniting has completely smashed.

I am one who will gladly pay to have the 914 community united again.

I joined both sites after the split. I don't even know what happened. No body talks about it and all threads have been erased. I have no ill will for the club or the world. I post here most because there is more traffic than the club site. I don't even know who owns this site?

I know there are many of you that post on both sites. Many of you use different usre names. Why? I'm not scared to use the same user name, no body knows me...

I had a pretty nice poop today. not too hard, not too soft. Not too big, but big enough to feel satisfying and to let me know all is well in the tract. Had a faint tar smell to it, but I'm not real worried about that as I ate asphalt last night. Anyone else care to share their poo of the day tale ??

Posted by: Andyrew Mar 27 2010, 08:42 PM

Scotty If your curious about other people's poop, Audizine (an audi forum) has a thread in their General chit chat called "Sometimes when I have to poop", I'd link to it but you'd have to sign up to view it.

Suffice it to say it is 38 pages, and nearly 1500 posts. And yes, it is about poop.

This is like going to the races and saying "I really don't like car crashes" This has been OK, we come from many different generations and backgrounds and interests and we are all connected by an old car that hasn't been made for 34 years. I'd say we are all a little like Don Quixote.

Perhaps I am in the minority here but.....why let the guy profit off of this? If he wants out, let him go. Let the Club site die and let the people slowly migrate over here or to where ever they want to go. If World proves to be the best 914 resource on the web(which I think it will), people will come. Done deal.

There is no super secret information over there that can't be reproduced or isn't known by people that post on World. Get over it. Let him go quietly and let people land where they feel most comfortable. No need to pony up $5 k for that!

Oh Scotty, while working on my bus today I had a code red (limited time before the body WILL evacuate feces). No one was home, and the spare house key would not work.

Well, I found some plastic wrap that was from something right next to one of Zach's 5gal buckets that we use as a trash can. You probably guessed it by now. Push the trash down, put the plastic wrap in and

Posted by: DBCooper Mar 28 2010, 03:07 PM

AutoAtlanta, no other. Look at the completed auction site, bid history http://offer.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&item=280484294227 Notice the feedback number (2124 as I write this).

And then an AutoAtlanta auction like http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Porsche-914-octane-sticker-new-repro-item-auto- atlanta_W0QQitemZ330414180972QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessori
es?hash=item4cee384a6c#ht_500wt_749 Also feedback of 2124 as I write this (both were 2123 this morning early). It's AutoAtlanta, sighed by George Hussey.

Public auction so it's a little difficult to hide. If George really wanted to keep it secret he could have just given Brad a call.

I doubt that the sites will be merged. Club was a private enterprise before and I can't imagine George being so benevolent that he'd give that up now to make it all public, one big free community. I know I'm negatively biased when I think about George and AutoAtlanta, but think the Do It Pelican Style speculation earlier is more probable. I guess we'll see.

I'm not sure anyone ever really bashed AA. They just spoke about the parts they ordered and never received, being charged multiple times for the same item, and VIN numbers and 914-6 tubs being sold separately on ebay. That's not really bashing, is it?

Regarding George and AA, every business needs to improve. If George got into the 2000s with his website and improved his distribution network, he could probably make good.

That said, I'm waiting on an order now...

I wonder if Brad will stop in and say 'hi' now that he's not trying to 'compete'; per se. He's still a 914 guy.

There is is too many penguins eating that shit.

Posted by: DBCooper Mar 31 2010, 07:48 AM

Interesting. Some more shit. I don't know exactly what this means, but one of the website evaluators pegs the worth of 914club at $11,000 (http://www.markosweb.com/www/914club.com/, down the page at "Website Worth")

While they value 914world at only a tenth of that (http://www.markosweb.com/www/914world.com/)

So Brad's selling cheap? That's pretty far-fetched, but maybe those numbers will help with George's inevitable buyer's remorse. Knowing both sites I'd say the evaluators need to work on their valuation algorithms, but some of the rest of the info and comparisons are interesting.

Posted by: charliew Mar 31 2010, 08:10 AM

Yeah and I have a bunch of projects in the back yard that could be worth 100k. Course I would need to invest 100k in materials to get them to that point. No labor of course.

Brad is probably thinking he got paid about .25 an hour adding the additional posts to his forum. I bet in 10 years he will think maybe he should have just stuck it out. He might be best at posting and hosting although he was always cordual to me and was very fast at welcoming me to his forum as were people here.

Sometimes idea men have a hard time staying focused. Kinda like me on projects.

George,
The first thing you need to fix on the 914club site is the capability to post world url's to share information between the two sites. I thought it was pretty pathetic that I could not post a world link for someone who needed help with a topic that was already done on the world site. Personally, I surf both sites and try to stay out of the politics.

So where's the big announcement from the good Dr. AA?

Yes it seems perfect that announcement says site closed for a day and its late opening by several already.

I want to get in on those to be expected big AA group buys and special 914club member discounts!

Oh wait! ..I am still a club member after paying my $250 lifetime 914club membership fee ...right?

you actually PAID to be a 914 club member??

crazy, huh?

Posted by: charliew Apr 1 2010, 10:30 PM

I got some good info off of the club site especially when I was researching how I wanted to do the 911/944 style emergency brakes. I think that is also where I got on to the alfa romeo aluminum brembos.

I don't see why Brad shut off access in the first place. Kinda sucks for the buyer to pay $5k, while the active members are cut off by the previous owner. The new owner paid for a running site, and what their getting is a site that forced it's membership to leave (by being shut temporarily).

Why is it shut?

Probably because George is trying to get some help running it without disturbing his other busy business.

Posted by: hot_shoe914 Apr 2 2010, 02:32 AM

I wonder if any of these "rocket scientist" have figured out that it takes a little time to relocate servers and such? Maybe George is also intelligent enough to not reopen a half assed site but would rather make sure things are up to snuff before the Grand Reopening.

Posted by: DanT Apr 2 2010, 08:01 AM

not a half assed site ...where do you think all this came from?
just a different, but same site.

Posted by: RobW Apr 2 2010, 08:12 AM

After seeing George's catalogue, I look forward to whatever he makes the club site into....

It doesn't diminish the world site or anything else. More than 1 site is a good thing as long as you achieve critical activity.

I think George should do like the Pelican site. Why continue a copy of what we have here? Make it original somehow and AA related. It could be a boon for AA and the community.

I also agree with Steve (way up in an earlier post) that the banning of other site URLs was childish and unnecessary. It was that one more that made me decide to basically abandon that site.

Alfa! Why not go all the way:

Ferrari 308 rear fit a six or a four with vented rotors by the way, just have to install an additional bleeder nipple

Rob, just find some 308 cores. Not easy, but keep your eyes open and you never know.

Just sent an email to my friend that works at the local Ferrari dealer for you Rob I'll see if I can find anything from him.

If I recall correctly the aluminum Alpha Brembos are billed as the ultimate M-Caliper upgrade.

If the pads are oily, they'll never wear out. C'mon! Look at the bright side.

They wouldn't be that tough to change... my starter is in the way though; and I'd have to install my real catch can for my coolant.

these really work great though and allow a larger pad a vented rotor as well as and EMERGENCY brake and avoid welding a fixture onto the swing arm to hold the 911 style brake drum parking brake. Plus they will look just like the 916 rear brake setup we have here.
If you think about the total cost and the results, this is the rear caliper of choice for any 914 high performance application.

Same thing happened after the split, 914club was down a long time before it could get the servers up. that long time down was bad for the club as folks left. Meanwhile the world site was up and running and picked up more members. That long down time really killed off membership. It would be wise for new owner to get things up and running fast.
