Re: Whatsup From Slowboy??!!!
Well since you want us to introduce ourselves, my name is Oliver and I do all the purchasing for SBR Inc. I drive a 2G AWD Talon, a 02 GSXR 1000, and I also have an 81 Chevy shortbed pickup that I have heavily modified. I am a smart ass and I will make cracks about people mothers, cars, opinions, sexual orientation, and anything else that show an opportunity for a joke. but thats just the way I am, when needed I am as professional as they come, but i still speak the truth. I tell it how it is and thats final.
thanks for your time.
Oliver

How many local business's have twenty plus families to feed working for them?
Now its about my prices?
Give me a break - anyone who calls and see's something cheaper on a site elsewhere we try our best to match or beat it - again if we do not know about it, we cannot do anything about it!

You are supposed to be representing a company with your posts. If I was Mike you would be getting a warning.

Re: Whatsup From Slowboy??!!!
Mike, I am not condoning anything that Brent has done, but like was said there are 2 sides to every story. I personally do not like men that hit women. As long as there is no provokation. There are some instances that if a woman gets hit, it may or may not be justified. Some woman can be downright dirty in how they deal with men. They know that the man is the one that's gonna take the most heat for hitting them so they provoke them to the point that it would take a tibetan monk not to raise a hand. That article doesn't prove anything about his character. I've met Brent only a few times and I will not say that he is the greatest person alive because I just don't know him. But I won't say he's an asshole either. If it was proved that he did it and was convicted, then yes he deserves to be labled as such. But if there is no conviction and no evidence to prove it, then he is innocent until proven guilty.
As far as peoples complaints on here, I have never ordered from you guys and never will. From the negative press that has been circulating for a long time now, I would never even think to look into your site to buy anything. A business proves it's quality in how it treats it's customers, not necessarily by the quality of it's products. As you said, you have nearly a totally new crew. Maybe in time the "Slowboy" name will get better. And before you lash out at me for not knowing anything about business, I am in charge of the repair dept where I work. There is only me in the repair dept so I have to answer for anything and everything that goes wrong (late shipments, warranty issues, etc.). Keeping the customer happy is my number one priority. I'm not saying you have to give them everything for free. But you do have to be objective in dealing with a frustrated customer because of broken product or failed delivery. The turbo that I saw in those pictures didn't necessarily look like something went through it. If it had, all the fins would probably be mangled rather than one having a jagged break. But neither one of us can diagnose it without having it in front of our faces. My point is, from your posts, you seem to be very quick to point fingers at the other party so you don't have to admit something was faulty on your end. I'm sure with the volume of business that you say you do, it is hard to catch everything that goes wrong. But when it is brought to your attention you need to deal with it in a more professional matter than to basically tell someone to go fly a kite because you're not at fault.
BTW, are you coming to MN for Ojibwe? It's in August. You said you don't get to the midwest but we have one of the premier rally events in the nation right here every year. You haul further to get to the west coast than you would here so it would be a cheaper event. You think you'll be here this August? Of course there's always LSPR in Michigan in October.

That is because many of us have dealt directly with Brent and not had a problem, but many of us have had problems with your company. You won't see any of the other sponsors on this site acting like your employee's are. If you want a better outlook on your company, then you had better start stressing integrity and service. Use FP as a good example.

Oh, and if you didnt notice....were trying to represent a company that just so happens to be being bashed like a midevil wife in this thread. At this point, theres nothing we can "say or do" to make anyone happy, in this thread at least.

There are a lot of potential customers on here if the SBR image can get straightened out. Your comments are just backing up the image of the supposed "old" SBR.

They have such a great reputation because they have always had great products and customer service. SBR has had issues with both. That doesn't mean things aren't better now, but you need to prove that to people. The first way is to change the image on how people percieve you, then show that your products and service have changed. Your image would slowly turn around, but it won't happen overnight.

Re: Whatsup From Slowboy??!!!
I agree, the way you word things represents your company. If you signed up as Joe shmoe and had no SBR affiliation no one would care how you worded things. But since you are affiliated, I would think for your best interests, you guys would deal with the bashing differently instead of bashing back. Speaking your mind could hurt you hardcore in business.
