Just curious if anybody has any connections at Sparks Racing. When I ordered my pipe two month's ago they sent me a spark arrested version. Which I wasn't really complaining because it's a little more expensive than the regular pipe, but I did pay $55 for next day shipping and didn't receive the correct pipe. The real problem is they were supposed to send me a turn down the week after I received my pipe, but two month's later I have still not seen the turn down. I have called Sparks a number of times and talked with Scott, he gives me the same story, "I will make sure they make an extra turn down the next batch they make." Sure, sure! Anybody have any suggestions, Lyle?

sparks replied on Friday. It has only been 3 business days and Bakersfield is quite a haul from Indiana [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

the reason I say this is because the last time I shot my mouth off from work, my parts were already on my doorstep at home. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Well I hadn't heard anything, and as you can see from the other posts, its not only sparks that I am having problems with. Maybe its on the door step, but I would bet my left nut its not!

Why do a lot of companies fail to deliver when promised? If i call tell the thruth, i may or may not wait for it. I will try you again in the future. Just don't give me the run around.

Exactly, actually Lonestar has been straight forward with me lately, but! They originally said the parts were in the shop being made as we spoke on the phone. 4 weeks later they are still in the shop. If they would have told me they won't be done for another month, I wouldn't have placed the order. Must be the slow economy, take peoples money and make them wait. Who knows?
