dealing with the specialist gets you right to the point...it is what they do...it isn't what they want to slap their name on and try to sell today.
this is coming from 15 years of direct market experience..i have seen quite a lot come and go.

For clarity, both AP & Wilwood make the major braking components in discussion, not Essex or RR. Both Essex and RR produce integrations/configurations (kits) made with those parts. Stillen also produces an AP kit. Essex sells many other parts not related to braking, as does RR Racing and Stillen. None are "specialists" in the way you seem to have defined them above. Although all have done an admirable job.

I have no idea what thread you guys are even referring to but I do know if you want to promote and market a product you better be ready to answer any and all questions regardless of where they come from.

Folksy and tough sounding. Can you clarify, when you say "you" who are you speaking of?
More importantly though, generally speaking vendors should keep from commenting on other vendors products in their respective threads to prevent flame wars, F.U.D., etc from starting up. People/vendors sometimes do have intent behind the timing and location of their questions. If not, sometimes the conversation can become that.

- 3) Do not comment on any other vendor/sponsor's company, products, or services. Stick to discussing only your own. This applies forum-wide and not just the classifieds.
Failure to comply with any of these rules will result in warnings/infractions and eventual ban if continued.
* This list will be updated periodically so it's your obligation to review and comply on a continuing basis with it.
** We encourage all members and vendors to report any violations of these by using the Report Post feature (exclamation point icon in each post) so that we can keep the classifieds an efficient and pleasant section to browse |
