You aren't a business person are you? I know exactly what Sam is doing and that is putting his energy where he feels the most profit is. This is smart business. This is EXACTLY the place people need to speak up so Sam knows that maybe the market for CARB legal kit is bigger than he thought and just maybe he'll prioritize some time to serving that market.

In the software world we call this FUD. 1 year ago the Stillen kit was a strong potential competitor and they were advertising that they would get CARB certified. Sam didn't want to give Stillen that competitive advantage in the largest market for sales and said they too would get certified. Sam even posted later that GTM would have their certification first. Well the Stillen kit turned out to be a weak competitor and it appears to me that CARB certification at GTM is on the back burner.
