As an avid car and racing junkie in the bay area for 12 years, I've only heard good things about Works being very nice and professional amongst my track friends and canyon carvers. Since I plan on adding significant power and better handling to my BRZ soon, I'm especially curious about the whole story. And I can't think of other companies who manufacture legitimate, CARB legal parts in northern California.

One thing that does bother me considerably is TachyonBomb's/xtra_slw's unashamed racism and unprofessionalism on Instagram. I'm not Asian or a minority but this is completely unacceptable, repulsive and goes way beyond some unemployed kid with money problems with way too much time on his hands.
Racists have no place in our cherished car community and this alone makes me question his character.
You know what's been asked for a few times in this thread? For the other side to present their side of it.

I just bolded something from your post. Let me finish it. One thing that does bother me considerably is that you took the time to put @TachyonBomb on blast for two very malicious reasons, and yet you took absolutely zero time to provide evidence of him expressing either of them.

You say he's shown unashamed racism and unprofessionalism. Where's the racism? I actually followed him on IG long before this whole conflict started, and I have a pretty hard stance on people who are racist. I've never seen anything of the sort. If I had, I'd have the same opinion against him. But I haven't.

Liars have no place in our cherished car community and this alone makes me question your character.

So, if you have evidence of anything other than your own words, please present them. Otherwise you're now just falsely shaming TachyonBomb.
