    • So, if you have customers waiting for product, you get it built. There's no excuse for this long to build a motor if the customer has the money. That's not good business.

        • Why is everyone so concerned about Gomez's choices for an Engine builder. He's a big Boy,Ya?

          • My question is why so long to build his motor? It's not that hard.

              I think people just want to see this project finished. The build was going so well, destined to be one of the finest builds to date. Lots of us want to see Bryant's car at Madness. On top of that, there were some pretty bold claims made about this engine. We want to see that as well. The guy who made those claims seems to have a history of bold claims that have yet to be proven. If that's not reason for suspense, what is? lol.
              I personally devoted my time to this build, and I apologized for taking a few weeks longer than expected to complete the work I did. I'd like to see this car running as much as anyone, and I'd like to see it perform as claimed.

              Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile. Please respect this passion.

              • He was expecting this motor to be in the car last year at madness, a year later and he still doesn't have the motor. Why?
                Thats my question.

                • Not hard when it's the only thing to do. When you have a hundred customers lined up and youre working out of a building that's crumbling and getting rained in, it's a little different. Bryant knew there was a waiting list when he signed up for the work.

                  • Still that's way too long. If his high priced customers are all he cares about, he shouldn't take the "cheaper" jobs. There's no excuse for it to take this long.
