This is my story

So who exactly had blown motors with their kits? I've never seen them post up....if they're here can they post up? Would be nice to know the causes/circumstances behind each

ValpoGuy(?) had a blown motor, with a fire added in for extra fun IIRC. That's just the first one. Bobtard popped Infidel's motor just installing a SC kit from someone else,and then sent him a car that's still not right. Bobby shipped Cosmo a really, really bad motor and had to be threatened with legal action to send him one that wasn't a dumpster fire (not sure when Cosmo became Bobby's biggest cheerleader after that. Must have bought him a nice dress.) There's a few more. Bobby doesn't have a long post history under this screenname and there were multiple failures mentioned in some of his other threads. It's out there if you sift through his posts.

There are more than a few VSR kits that have held together, but I wouldn't use that as a testament of his skills. Plus, in his other threads he says NONE of his kits have had motors blow, and then he walked that back here pretty quickly.

Banned for being a general tool.
