A thank you for your support

I wanted to make a post to those of you in this subforum, since it applies to the members who frequent this subforum in particular.

CSG may not always have the best price, or even have the product you're looking for, but you guys continue to purchase from us, and we would not be able to do the R&D that we do without your support. In turn, we strive to freely spread the information that we've acumulated in our journey, and hope that you find our knowledge valuable.

We always do our best to remain competitive, both in product pricing and at the track, but please remember at in the end, CSG is really just a group of enthusiasts that do this because we can.

Happy two years.

Thank you guys. I dont track (might once or twice eventually to give it a shot) and kind of autox but the info here is amazing. Your track thread and the suspension thread with RCE is amazing and taught me way beyond my comprehension on some occasions even.

Agreed with the others.

I have never tracked the car. I do autoX, but the perspective you give and the inputs from everyone else on this sub-forum have been an asset.

I only participated in my first autocross event on Sunday, but I did a lot of reading of your threads and posts beforehand and I think was at least a bit better prepared because of it.

So thank you for being here.

No problem you earned it!

I need new brakes. I tend to drive 175MPH in Subdivisions and hit a lot of stops signs and my rotors have some type of cracks in them I tried to fill them in with epoxy but that only lasts a few days. Any advice?

Thats strange. I drive 176 mph downtown where there is a lot of stop and go traffic. No stress cracks yet.

Do you have drilled rotors?

I was told not to drill them on and to hand tighten them only.

Good advice. You must have one of those "flukes" or something.

Thank you! You guys provide a lot a valuable information through the forums. It's also nice that I can pick up the phone and consult with you on the purchase to ensure I'm getting the correct parts.
