Default Distributor work

Guys,
Hope all is well with everyone. I’m just going to lay this out here, because I’ve got several PM’s I’m storing as they have tech info on them that I don’t wish to delete just yet. That being the case, I’ve got just a bit of space left in there.

Here’s the deal, just to let everyone know where I am at the moment. My mother unexpectedly passed away 8/21. Now I know DR’s and what not are busy and such, but it’s taken until this past Saturday to get mom properly laid to rest. All because of a computer error supposedly made by the DR’s office manager. Now I got to tell you I don’t like waiting any more than the next guy, but that little deal was complete BS. Never taken more than 5-6 days on any of the other 20 some odd family members to get that done.

As such, I’ve had my mind for the last 2 weeks elsewhere. So for those of you who have been waiting patiently I do appreciate that.

Last night I got a text from a member and I kinda flew off at the handle and the result of that, is a distributor that’s not left yet ,but is boxed up to go back to its home. It’s not left just yet as it in my bosses office as they didn’t make it in to work today. To be fair he had sent 2 PM’s I had not seen. I saw them after he texted me though…

Still a little on edge about this whole deal still and I know y’all’s patience level is thin, and mine bygod left the building with Elvis over this deal about 3 weeks ago…

Just hang in there and I guarantee I’ll get these things back to you. I just wanted to let you folks know what’s going on.

Things should settle back to whatever normal was now that Saturday was over and finished like it was supposed to be weeks ago….

Thanks for your time!
Bob

Take your time with the Sprint 6 distributor.
I'm in no rush.

Bob,

I’ve been waiting to send mine in until things had settled down a bit.

I’ll let you know when I send it out, won’t be for a little while I have a few things going on right now.

Faith then Family then everyone else needs to patiently get in line! Maybe you have a build that is waiting on that one part or two to finish things up. Give people some leeway, especially the long-time performers. You don't know their world.
Sun Tuned, take care of family first, we understand.

Praying for your deal...strength and comfort, Please, Lord!!!

I have not done business with you, yet...yet.
I know what you do is spot on, no nonsense work.
I've waited for months for machine work to get done, 2 years for an engine build, because HE WAS THE BEST!!!
He no longer does any of the work he used to. He divorced, moved, only tunes engines at races, mostly, I last saw him at a race 8 years ago?
I long for the days when he was available to work on my stuff, EVEN if I had to wait!!!

Carry on!!! Bob
