Beware...
Well I have read numerous threads about internet scams etc, but never thought that I would get scre^ed by a member and fellow enthusiast. All I can say is be careful who you deal with and don't trust anybody on these boards unless you know them really well.
Here is the deal: Last weekend we had a tuning day at DTM with Jestr. There was 1 no show, but everything else appeared to go well. Michael and the rest of the DTM team were extremely accommodating and helpful and Jestr (John) did a great job. When I arrived, two of the guys were having boost issues. I quickly helped identify the leaks and helped fix them. Tuning continued and all was fine. Then one of the guys that got his tune takes off...I stay until the end to find out that the guy that took off did not pay for the dyno time. I volunteer to pay his debt and figured he would pay me back since he seemed like a nice guy (I also fixed his boost leak). Well after 3 calls and numerous PMs, the guy has yet to reimburse me the $127 and is giving me all sorts of excuses and BS. It just really sucks that this happens, but Karma and paybacks are even worse

Yeah he still is on the boards all the time...I will give him another day and then I will post all of his info. Then I will take another course and let Karma get him ...
The funniest part was he took me for a ride in his car to see how it was pulling and he missed like 3 or 4 shifts ...I thought to myself I should help this guy learn to shift and heel and toe, but f that....
