  1. OK, so...it's ridiculous that time that could be dedicated to worthwhile endeavors has to be redirected toward answering the delusions of some very sad individuals... Two quick observations first: (1) It's amazing how people who know the least about you always have the most to say about you. And then they state it as if it's the gospel. (2) I am really shocked by the balls some people have by attempting to 'expose skeletons' in my closet given the piles of bones in theirs. Either they don't know that I know them or simply know I have always been a better person than them and kept those things private. Anyway, a bit of 'snopesing' for the peanut gallery... - I don't know who you are, Mike; or even who you think you are in your own mind, but you're obviously trying to gain some relevance by talking out of your ass. - Well I'm not sure how many abortions put down the power like ours did or look as good as ours did; but you might want to re-think your choice of words given that you are calling your new beer butt-buddy Corey's work an abortion. Oh, the irony. - *you're - My fatass managed to push it to a world record WHP; you should see my calves! I know YOU'RE impressed. - No, you wouldn't say it to my face. You're a keyboard warrior who gets off on trying to be tough. - Be a real class act and don't speak about matters that do not involve or concern you; especially when you have no idea what you're actually talking about. Zegna is nice! I have a few items of theirs. I think it's cut for small, European types though. I prefer TF, Zilli, and Saville Row, and Jermyn St. I am sorry to see that you fell off of the drug and alcohol wagon and into the Amy Winehouse fun factory. I don't think it's appropriate to get into all of the reasons you're a lying, miserable, lonely, worthless, unclean POS; however, I will touch on a few highlights. - You literally begged me for a job - I saw potential and allowed you to progress through the company as you showed promise - You became complacent; took things for granted; and started to embody your generation's sense of entitlement - You believed that doing the bare minimum deserved a raise - You stated that because your parents had paid for your health insurance since you were a kid, now that you were too old to be on it, it was CTD's responsibility to pay for it because, "you didn't want to." I have a video of you actually crying about it in my office. - You rescued a dog (admirable), but then couldn't take care of it or feed it, so what did I do? Paid for his medical bills and over $5,000 worth of food for it. Why? Because he shouldn't suffer just because you couldn't stop from blowing your paycheck on drugs, alcohol, RC cars, and/or car parts - When you totaled your car driving drunk (you know, when you ran away scared and tried to avoid responsibility for your actions and before you lost your license), who provided you with a car free of charge? Me. - You ordered countless parts and tools for your own personal use with company money and never reimbursed the company. Some would call that theft. - You helped someone steal his car out of our shop in the hopes he would hire you. There was an employee witness and the customer himself named you as an accomplice. You got caught. You got caught calling customers and vendors lying with every breath. You. Got. Caught. - You violated your non-compete and tried/are trying to conceal that fact by being paid under-the-table - And to think all of this downhill spiral started because CTD determined your lack of work ethic and production no longer warranted the massive subsidy for your dog. So you were going to "show us" from that point on. - Almost every neutral party that walked through CTD's doors and met you, mentioned to me that they thought you were unstable and a liability, but I believed you were the best chance for customers to get their cars back as quickly as possible. Live and learn. - And there's the tip of the iceberg But here's the most important one.... EVERY SINGLE MISSED DEADLINE OR BROKEN PROMISE that I am being blamed for in this thread, didn't originate with me. I did't work on the cars (very thankfully for the customers), you did. You, yourself, stated that you built every motor. What about this "abortion" that you're unknowingly being blamed for? Was that incompetence or laziness? Those missed deadlines originated from you, Corey. But, trust me, none of us expect you to accept responsibility for any of that. That's not who you are. You're of the "I am a winner because I participated" tribe. You can try and deflect and try to make me out to be the bad guy, but, unfortunately for you, the truth doesn't agree. And the truth doesn't care whether or not you believe in it; it's still there...unchanged. You're future is bright???? How? You HAD potential but you sabotaged yourself, something you admitted to doing multiple times. Your life will continue to consist of living in your parents basement, popping pills, drinking, and occasionally working on something meaningless. You can insult me all you like, and blame me for all of your shortcomings; but the fact of the matter is, you created the mess you are in. Sorry, the truth is hard pill to swallow. You are right about one thing: You do have nothing to lose...because you have achieved nothing. In your own words, "That's keeping it 100%." Now move on with your life. If signing up as a disgruntled employee with the sole purpose of slinging shit at me because you're mad at yourself is any indication, you need to do it immediately. And, if you put just a fraction of the time and effort you put into your blame-fest into something positive, maybe, just MAYBE, you would make something of yourself. BTW no one gives a fcuk about you...period. Just because you can go weeks without bathing doesn't mean you should. Ahhh Andy. So glad you could chime in here! I'm just glad that LP doesn't charge by the letter or you'd have to post in shorthand. - I'm glad that at least one of us is happy that you wasted so much of CTD's time with your incessant cheapness. - I tried to do you a favor time after time when it came to CF components, exhaust, tuning, etc. but you simply used people (myself included) to find out pricing so you could then call everyone else and play them against each other. - Even the time you tried to cut S47 out of the paint work on your bumper! - Jesus the stories that went on about you between dealers and vendors...good times, good times. - You hit the name on the head with these 3 words, "I don't understand." You're right, you don't. And yet that doesn't stop you from continuing to speak. - You were banned from the Stampede for 2 reasons: (1) you had the audacity to sign-up, pay the NON-refundable admission, decide to cancel (which was graciously granted to you), and then actually ask to be sent ALL OF THE FREE STUFF YOU GET for going on the Stampede (worth more than the ticket itself). And (2) for lying about your little Lambo Club of Western PA, the pull you had, the cars you could bring etc. etc. to Lamborghini who naturally contacted the appropriate parties where they were promptly set straight. - It's funny how you wouldn't come to the Stampede because of me, but had no problem begging me, Emily, and employees to come and display our cars to help promote your unlicensed 'club'. - The people who actually know me Andy don't share your moronic delusions. There: a breakthrough for you towards your path to 'understanding'. - Trust us, we at the Stampede are all thrilled you won't be able to poseur your way through the event. - Brendan was fucked; but not by me. He knows EXACTLY who fucked him; someone who is STILL taking credit for the project's perfect completion even though it was never 100% completed. I actually did the financially UNSOUND thing of trying to help and do the right thing. Obviously, things didn't work out as expected but your continued use of "he was fucked/screwed/lied to/etc" shows just how little you actually know. - You didn't ban shit. I was around PGHCNC a long time before you and I'll be around it a long time after you're gone. What world do you live in? - It's a really good thing you didn't "ram" my wife's car just for "the hell of it." Not only would you have had your ass systematically beaten on the side of the road in front of hundreds of cameras and spectators by my wife, but you would have wrecked a car that wasn't yours. - Enjoy your beer with the abortion creator! Nick, much like Brendan, I don't think that a public forum is the best place to hash any of this out because, there are always two sides to every story, and it serves no beneficial purpose to either party. I have always been more than willing to speak directly with you but my attempts went un-responded to so I moved on and assumed you had also. I think it's very important to remember that I was sold the same story you were; and Brendan. You're right about other stories need to be told; however, they'll be very different than the ones you're expecting them to be. The difference between the guy that sold all of us the dream and me? I actually tried to make it right instead of just running away. I have the hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of receipts I spent on multiple 'scammed' projects to prove it. The offer to speak privately still stands... I am by no means without fault; however, I did do everything that was within my power to try and make right what was initially made wrong. I'm also sorry to see that you're getting your information from a source such as the disgruntled, unstable, and mentally deranged one dealt with above who is clearly trying to deflect from all that he is in trouble for. And finally, Scotty, how about you get a fcuking hobby besides stalking me (we're starting year 6 now). I realized forced retirement isn't suiting you well (yes, I have reputable sources too), but backing into McLaren, blaming it on everyone else at an event, bashing the event, and then fabricating some story about how you're telling a 'friend' not to bring a P1, LaF, and 918 to the event next Spring because you fucked up is just plain sad. You do realize you had three mirrors, parking sensors, and a rear view camera, right?? Feeling washed up and irrelevant? Just offer up some people a free week in Manzanillo and maybe they'll be your friend! Jesus fcuk! There's an hour and a half of my life I'll never get back! I realize now that taking the 'high road' approach and keeping certain internal sabotages private (and not making them publicly known) was obviously not the best way to go because, people, when given no explanation, will make up their own. I should have simply thrown the responsible party(ies) under the bus from Day 1 rather than do the professional 'thing'. Hopefully, this thread gets back to its focus...Brendan getting a UGR Stage 3 car.
  2. I was informed about this thread and I thought it was important to put some facts to the conjecture, speculation, and down-right bullshit (read: Scottyisms) that's in this thread. First, the car took too long. I bought into a person's bullshit hook, line, and sinker, and he screwed the pooch like nobody's business. As such, we were left cleaning up one giant mess, both with my car, Brendan's, and others. Life lesson learned the hard way. But you live and you learn. I'll also say that Brendan is/was (don't know how he views it) a friend and showed a lot of class and patience with the whole process and that is the reason I put so much money into the project personally. He didn't deserve to get screwed because of what someone else did. When the car left our shop it was making over 1,000AWHP on wastegate pressure and was an absolute beast. Hands down the best sounding G I've ever heard. The only hang-up was that the e-gear system was not happy with the new intake runners being without the tumbler generators. Motec was working on a solution and Brendan was aware of this at the time but the car was definitely drivable. The issue only came into play at take-off. The car never smoked in the 700+ miles we put on the car prior to delivery. Due to the exhaust being wrapped and the design of the pipes, condensation would collect when it was cool out, and there would be steam (not to be confused with smoke) coming from the exhaust until all the water evaporated. We did the best we could under the circumstances and, ultimately, I hope Brendan ends up with exactly what he wants, be it from UGR or anyone else. I thought that, minus the e-gear take off issue, his car was amazing when it left CTD. As did a lot of other people. As far as CTD goes, I don't understand why so many people care so deeply about something that doesn't affect them in any way, shape, or form; however, I guess I should be thankful for it as the huge internet buzz everyone created was the main driver of business and made so much possible. CTD was created as a shits-and-giggles hobby so that I could finish my car, after it was mutilated by a complete fuckwad, without having to solely take on the expense. It worked. We were fortunate enough to have a manufacturer love an idea enough to green-light it which is prompting us to get out of the performance 'scene' which, quite frankly, is not a way to make sufficient money for me. That's why it was a hobby. The first stage in the evolution of CTD was fun, it got us where we needed to go, and now it's time to move on to bigger and better things. It's not nor ever was even my primary business so, again, not sure why so many people acted like their family's welfare relied upon it. Kudos to UGR and Heff for keeping up the TT Lambo game; we couldn't be happier with where things have taken us and I hope the same is true for them. I must say though, the comment that really hurt...the shot at my suit!!! It's a custom, Tom Ford MTM; however, they screwed up my measurements when they flew back to NYC and I didn't know it until I was putting it on at the event! I don't make that mistake any more!!! Nonetheless, thank you truly for the entertainment value of all of this; whether or not you were a hater. I can personally vouch for the expression, "Haters made us famous." I will forever be grateful for all of the doors you opened.
  3. RIP. Was absolutely floored when I got the news. Spoke to his father today and it's just surreal. He was truly a great kid. Here we thought he had conquered it and enjoyed the Italian Stampede over the Summer. Gone way too soon. I thought Rob Ferreti's FB post to his wall was so apropos about how so many people who hated on him now do a 180 now that he's dead. Some who have even posted in this thread. Maybe it will teach people to stop being such assholes; but probably not. At least he packed a LOT into his 24 years.
  4. Agreed. I've never been a fan of the Huracan at all but the 488 just killed it completely.
  5. Not gonna lie, it has me in them as well!! The goal was to highlight the hexagonal exhausts for the event! Mission accomplished! Since then, Lambo has done a few cars with them. With the new titanium exhaust and trim rings now fitted, definitely NOT going back to those bad boys!!!!
  6. Thanks! Can't wait until the custom carbon pieces are complete; it'll really tie it all together with a more OEM Racecar look. The gold foil is actually just what's holding the 'good stuff' in place. You should hear it in person; loudest non-racecar you've ever heard! 99dB at 80ft.....at IDLE.
  7. You want to look at PRETTY parts; not disappointing ones. Get with the program!! I'll be PRAYING for changes!
  8. What an absolute disappointment. The wing is the best thing about the car and even that is just OK. Makes the Murci SV look 1,000 times better. This had better be some sort of camouflage to throw people off in case it's spotted because this thing, in this form, is a joke.
  9. Looks great Limey! Might be the only exhaust possibly as short (or even shorter) than mine!!!
  10. I'll have my 3 on the 50 with the backrests for some games also. Ask Gilligan740 about the view.
  11. 100-1 odds in some betting houses. Can't wait for next year! I said OSU by 3; I forgot to write "TDs" after the 3!
