I may not really have a great perspective on the issue at hand. I have had nothing but great response from my backdraft dealer (Jay). I know sales when I see them, and Jay has yet to make me feel he was just interested in the sales end of making scads of cash (yea, I priced out the chassis, and the motor seperately-and I know what he's making per unit here-not enough).
I have put 150 miles on #479 in the last week driving around the bumpy streets of San Francisco. I had it up on a lift this weekend and went over every inch of my car, every bolt. Only one loose suspension bolt. The mechanic I was working with said this was the best engineered, best put together replica he's ever seen. And this guy is a uber gear head. (has a Z28 with a 592 cubic inch motor that puts mine to shame in the noise dept)
I've had nothing but a great experience with the car, the finish, the overall quality, and last-from the representatives of Backdraft.
I'm not here to stir the proverbial ****, just provide some love from the silent majority. I think they are due for building what are essentially 'one off' handmade racecars, that we all use and beat on daily. Doesn't John Force rebuild his engine every race?
Everyone is due an opinion, and for some who've owned their cars for longer and issues have come up, sorry to hear that they didn't get resolved completly.
I think anyone I passed today, who gave me a thumbs up, or took a picture, or jus lost their mind, would happily have taken over any of our problems to be in our place. I'll pass along your phone number if you'd like
Jay, I'll join you for that Stoli anytime....
