Where did he go?
 

anyone heard what happened to www.johnnyracecar.com? I knew for a long time his website said he was takin a break for a while, but he never came back

Re: Where did he go?
 

gone!!! he could not compete with the CDM brand price and availability

Re: Where did he go?
 

+ his welder left for another local business. I never knew they came from a business 15 minutes from here!

Re: Where did he go?
 

well that freakin sucks, id rather have one of his intercoolers over something from egay made by some chinese 8 year old.

i thought his prices were really good, and i would have bought one of his over CDM any day of the week. too bad i was poor then, and now i have a job.

Re: Where did he go?
 

same thing happend to cca. Both made excellent quality fmics

Re: Where did he go?
 

Well, kinda. :-\

I love my JRC, I'll easily get what I paid for it when I upgrade to bigger, but it's sad that such a quality IC maker for a good price isn't around anymore :-\

Re: Where did he go?
 

Or kinda not at all. :3

Re: Where did he go?
 

He made good stuff but Im sure he makes a better living welding up stuff for home construction sadly and nto dealing with homo 17 year old kid emails

Re: Where did he go?
 

Agreed. JRC quit becuase he didn't want to compete. CCA is no longer around here because CCA sold out and jumped on the CDM bandwagon, and when Mrs CCA started pushing that ---- here, HMT hated her clean off the site. Quote from Whitey included something like "SSAutoCoach", which made many folks laugh, mostly me.

Yeah, it was kind of a shame because CCA seemed like nice people.... but when they posted up their shiny new SSAC product line they denied it was cheap chinese knockoffs. :-[

Re: Where did he go?
 

Kinda ironic that last nite I was searching for CCA's site to no avail. I was trying to find out how much hp my 6" FMIC is good up to. :-\

Re: Where did he go?
 

RIP JRC :'(

All I could find:

http://www.streetperformance.com/ind...dlisting=23306 (link goes to a spam website, guess they gave up and spambots took over)

Re: Where did he go?
 

I love my 5" jrc fmic. I just wish I would have picked up a bigger one.

Re: Where did he go?
 

JRC was buying Ford Powerstroke ICs for ~$200-230 and cutting them into ~3 ICs and making new endtanks. Viable for a DIYer, IMO.

Re: Where did he go?
 

JRC and CCA FMIC's were nothing special. JRC was a 2" core with no bottoms for $200. Now you can go on egay and get an intercooler an inch thicker for $100. Honestly, I think the market won and I'd imagine Tyrus is better off welding aluminum for some company making $20+ an hour.

Re: Where did he go?
 

Well I didn't want to just come out and say it. :-\ It sucks because they were always anti-SSAC and all about quality and making ---- right, then they spammed that chinese ---- all over the place like we were supposed to accept it and buy it. :3 They were surprised at the reaction they got from it, which doesn't make sense to me. :l I wonder what happened to them? ???

After they left HMT I tried searching for them to see if they still offered the smaller ICs through their site but nothing, even dead links through the SRT-4 forums where they sold stuff.

They also sold fake titays :D

Re: Where did he go?
 

When I discovered the fake boobs being sold on ebay, that was probably one of the most shocking/hilarious things I've ever found out about someone.

Don't throw them in the same boat, though. JRC couldn't keep up with the chinese bs so gave up that end. CCA was done fine as far as I could tell but decided to start selling cdm ---- out to wazoo and was probably the reason for their demise.

Re: Where did he go?
 

Its just the sad fact that to make a living selling parts to people for Hondas is basicaly impossible. Both offered good products and both could still sell parts here Im sure just on a smaller level.
