Ok so some of you may know I am doing the build of my life.
Put the case together for checking fit all went fine everything turned great. Disassembled and found this break in the case at the cam. ![]() I have a massive amount of money in this case and it is opened for my 102s. Anyone think of if and where I can get this repaired quickly? |

I see the back and forth on this thread and it is interesting for sure. I want to reiterate again how heartbreaking this is and I feel your pain. I've been lucky enough to see things from many perspectives in my career. I've been involved with a race program with corporate funding at the highest professional levels and I can say without a shadow of doubt that I've seen extremely expensive race parts scrapped for minor flaws that are seemingly insignificant. . . Just to be absolutely sure that we had the best chance of winning a race. I've also been involved in SCCA club racing and have crewed on teams that were run on nothing more than a desire to be there. Each crew member funding their own way. I've seen wrecked cars and motors rebuilt overnight with little more than bailing wire and duct tape in order to compete the next day. I completely understand Chris' perspective that it could be saved. It absolutely could. The toughest decision is to decide which end of that continuum you are going to be on. None of us can decide that. It is a deeply personal question dependent on the end goal, time, money, and resources at hand. I wish you the best in this tough decision. I am so sorry to see you go though this. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |
