I thought they were going to do testing and install on test cars before going into production. Has this even happened yet??

bullitt5897 12-12-2017 06:11 PM

They are cutting the preproduction kits. 2 of them to be exact. Once testing is complete on those revisions the production units will be cut and ready. They stated they will do a pre-order once the pre production numbers are in.

bullitt5897 12-12-2017 06:11 PM

They are cutting the lower plenum first then the fuel rail stack and the adapter plates.

bullitt5897 12-12-2017 06:12 PM

Cutting on the lower plenum begin tomorrow (wed) as mentioned earlier.

Taking pre-orders........... sounds fishy

No pics, a complete miss on every date given, and Bobbys prior fraud conviction and he wants people to give him money up front? Are we due for another gtm style meltdown?

We have always said that no money would be taken up front until the kits are finished with development and testing and ready to be produced.

Bullitt is simply relaying the information we have given him.

Everyone is aware of SAM and GTM's short comings and NO ONE wants to be associated or be in the same boat as him.

We will be putting together a Pre-order Group Buy. That will not be released until testing is done and we are ready to produce the production kits. Yes we have missed earlier dates. Why? because we have been putting our existing customers first and clearing out our backlog. What did this mean? We couldn't use our machines to cut the kits... We supply work for several industries with a CNC abilities. Some of those projects came through during this development and while we would love to keep on one project and see it to fruition in a short time. We also have to keep the doors open. We haven't taken a dime for the kits. We have spent tens of thousands of dollars to develop this kit and we are about to spend a lot more right before Christmas. So while you may be skeptical do to other failed businesses. We (RJM) have not done anything to warrant the accusations above.

As for Bobby's past his issue was related to taxes and not paying on time. He paid his employees first and he was made an example of because of it (Many years ago and not associated to RJM). Also, There are more people involved in this business venture other than Bobby. Everyone of them with a clean record and a history of running successful businesses.

There is no Ponzi scheme, there is no rob from peter to pay paul, and there is no shady business here.

Now I know this may have come across as direct and some may take it as harsh but we want to nip this kind of thing in the butt. We are very direct open and honest about our schedules and what we are working on. We constantly post videos and pictures on our facebook page that detail what is going on in the shop.

Bullitt is doing us all a favor by keeping you guys informed. He had an instrumental help in designing the kit and was not paid for it (His Choice). He wants to see this kit as much as you guys do and has a future project he is working on that will have this kit as well.

Please remain patient. We are starting the cutting of the lower manifolds tonight. This may take a few days as we are confirming the tool paths and we keep an eye on each operation to make sure everything is copasetic. By doing this we can confirm machining speeds and can estimate the overall machining cost time. This will help us finalize the overall costs. and get the price as low as possible on the production kits.

Thank you,

The RJM Team

Employing Bobby is cause enough to cast a shadow on the rest of the company. He's screwed many members here. Lie down with dogs, get up with fleas, dude.

Dude... did they dispute the issue with Bobby and his previous taxes? No... so why are you harping on it? They have always been open and honest in all the dealings I have had with them.

To be honest chuck what the F is up your a$$ that you have to try and derail this thread? If you don’t want to buy a kit then don’t... I wouldn’t even be associated with this if it was even remotely shady. Especially given how I and many others got F’d over by GTM...

Stop talking out your A$$ and stay on topic of the thread...

RJ MFG 12-13-2017 10:39 AM

Guys keep it civil.

Chuck we have been very open and honest. Please point out where we have been shady... I can guarantee you cannot. We haven't taken anyones money and ran. We have produced every product ordered and we have had positive customer service since we opened our doors.

:rofl2: Dude, you were publicly supporting GTM all the way to the end and giving people **** for calling them thieves and scammers. Only when it directly impacted you did you finally admit there were problems. Your unpaid position as RJM's mouthpiece does not add to their credibility.

Fair enough, there have been no public reports of any wrongdoing. But the employment of Bobby given his history speaks volumes. Even if he wasn't locked up for fraud, he's screwed many people here. You're going to always have to fight that association as long as there is one. I'll let it go at that.

bullitt5897 12-13-2017 10:56 AM

Chuck, I got several people their products and money refunded. So judge me all you want. I got people their money and product and I still lost tens of thousands. I don’t give a flying F what you think dude. I played mediator and didn’t know they were going under. In fact Sam died in the middle of mediating for people...

Again, your sitting on conjecture of Fraud with no evidence. We do not know of a single instance where Bobby or RJM has screwed over anyone here on this forum. We do know of a single person who blackmailed him here on this very forum and that person was to be served papers from our lawyers if he did not stop. He proceeded to do the same to another shop that was fixing his car.

At this point you have made baseless claims with no supporting evidence. We will leave it at that so that the thread can stay on topic. We continue with our statement there was no fraud and no wrong doing. In fact many of our customers come from doing business with Bobby in the past. I guess time will tell. We are here to stay and develop leading edge products.

That's great. You also posted quite a bit about how everything was going to be ok, give Sam a chance, he didn't mean for all of this to happen, be patient, etc. Let it go. Like you said, you don't care. It shouldn't effect you that someone(s) on the internet thinks that the reason you were publicly telling people to be patient was that you were hoping to get your own money back out and you knew there wasn't enough of it for you if others were paid.

RJM, sorry for the derail. Good luck.
