Vegas Speak Up!

JENZ · 06-16-2013, 10:30 AM

SS- thanks for sharing the videos. I am sure many factors play into the differences in time seen in Vegas vs. other tracks. However I also know I suck at launching and that's my biggest weakness at this point. Meh.

Tazi- I will get some Canada pictures up as soon as possible. We got to take out my father in-law's Model A while we were out there. That was a blast!

Infamous- all I can say is wtf.

I would be screwed had the te37s been my only set. Hopefully they're on by the end of the week. I'm sick of this waiting game. In the meantime I lowered her on some eibachs.

Edit: Anyone know where I can get a billiard table with a dining table cover?

No have not seen one. Car is looking nice!

JENZ · 06-19-2013, 07:09 PM

I swear I've seen your car at the chevron over here....

Infamous · 06-19-2013, 07:48 PM

Didn't see a single Z in my stay over in Vegas. However, I did pass by LVMS - finally found out where that was!

Looks like a nice facility.

Tazicon · 06-20-2013, 09:00 AM

LVMS is a good places for races. Its pretty nice. I see 350Z's out here but few 370Z's. They are around though.

Snail motorsports is so full of fail. Suddenly my wheels are really hard to do and will cost more to do. Because the polisher I took them to, the one snail uses and sent them to, didn't fully polish them like instructed to by snail. Somehow its my fault according to the receptionist. She says I chose the polisher and they have nothing to do with him. Why couldn't they tell me from the get go that they couldn't do it? Why did I have to constantly call and beg for an update? I just picked my wheels up which have been there with no work done for the past month, since polishing. Their communication sucks. They had nothing but excuses for everything I asked. I'm beyond pissed right now. According to the receptionist Juan was the one taking care of them. I called yesterday for an update and had to beg for one, which I did not get. Juan was not in as usual and she was supposed to get back to me by the end of the day. Didn't get called and had to call today at 1430. Juan picked up after about 9 rings and said to hold on. The bastard had the receptionist pick up the phone to answer my questions when he had all the answers. What great customer service. Man up instead of hiding behind your receptionist. Waste of time and money. Don't go to snail! This is going up in any Vegas car forum I can get in. All I got was blamed and did not get an apology. I didn't even get to speak to Juan about any of this.

WOW!

Have you paid them anything? I would take this to small claims if you had and they won't refund you. Also BBB. Also every forum. When I meet up with the Mini people (whom the owners of Snail supposedly is part of- tho I haven't met them) I will bring this horror story up. That is what this is- a horror story.

sorry to hear... I can relate, but At least GTM gets **** done

A couple shots from our trip to the in-laws in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario, Canada:

The father-in-law's Model A.

It even goes off-roading!

In the rumble seat returning from a drive.

The American Falls.

The Horseshoe Falls.

Approaching the falls in the Maid of the Mist.

Beautiful stone buildings overlooking the falls and an outdoor amphitheater.

A gazebo that Richard Gere was in for some movie. Oh and the American Fort Niagara behind us across Lake Ontario.

This is the Brock Monument. Our equivalent to George Washington.

This view is only halfway up the monument. It is a total of 285 very steep steps up to the top.

Tazicon · 06-24-2013, 06:36 PM

Very cool photos! I love the model A and Niagra Falls! That has been on my bucket list for some time now.

Thanks. It was a great trip. That was his dad's very first car that he restored himself as a teenager.

Tazicon · 06-24-2013, 06:38 PM

And Infamous, I don't know what to say except I wish you had a different out come. I will help to pass the word about Snail as they shouldn't treat anyone that way.
