Forums are all about money. Why do you think people start them? I think this one is better than most though.

You have that backwards. This forum is about information and the community first and foremost. It just costs money to run it. Tran paid for all of it out of his pocket for over 4 years. So I think that's actualy pretty cool.

Yeah and I fronted all the money to start my business 20 some years ago and took several years to turn a profit. That's what it's all about. I'm sure it's paying off for him now.

I acknowledge the fact that it costs money to run it, but a forum's purpose is information, and there is a wealth to be shared within a community. A silly ban really accomplishes nothing as I still purchased what I needed, and I can still contact him. The shame is what if my concern is shared by even a single person; and that knowledge could have been passed twofold. Can you imagine if a Harvard education could be given open-forum? It's these silly political/financial games that get in the way of real progress - which is most effectively achieved through the sharing of knowledge. I know, deep right?

Anyway, I'm glad to see people coming out for Tracy. A world of help, whether or not any thing is bought or sold. I wasn't even aware he was the vendor at first, I thought he was a pleased customer!

And I hope this thread doesn't disappear... it would only validate my point

We don't discuss the reason for infractions or bans in public, but everyone must follow the rules. They are in place for a reason, and have helped make this forum what it is today. So you can plead about how bad it is, but in the end no one is immune to the rules.

Thanks for moving the post, I was about to point out how off topic this thread had gotten. This is definitely the right place, I posted originally in the bolt-on section just to let people know they're orders were good.

I have had the pleasure of interacting with Tracy several times recently and all I can say is this is a great person with more knowledge about what he is doing and selling than any other people can hope for. I'm sure it will all get worked out!

It's a shame, but I'm sure he'll be back. The funny thing is he always gave props to other catch cans that were worthy of props, but also told everyone how to check the efficiency of any can including his.

Sad thing but I know for a fact that at least one vendor on here will PM those interested in buying a catch can and throw Tracy under the bus. Now that is dirty, especially since the RX is one of the best at keeping oil from being pulled through the can and back into the intake.

Well I just got my catch can today but no throttle body. tried to send him a PM.... Account suspended! So does this mean I'm getting no throttle body? Are they out of business or just off line till they get things straighten out? any info out there?

Honestly, a catch can is a catch can. You can get along just fine without even having one. They ALL work, so just pick a pretty one and get it if you want it. If one works better than another, so what? It isn't gonna be a big enough difference to matter in the long run. These engines have gone into the 250k miles just fine WITHOUT one. (The LS3 platform of course)

The orders are all still good, he is temporarily off the forum for some vendor issues. You'll get the throttle body, but when I asked yesterday its about 2 weeks to get cores in to machine and send back out.

No worries, he'll be back
