What evidence is there that Chris owns / runs Stripper Motorsports?
Mark
Not sure that he owns or runs it, but there's no way he just works there and the simple fact that he's even involved makes me not want to do business with the place! TurboBuick Brian called there and claims Jelly answered so...

And although they list a toll-free phone number at the top of http://www.strippermotorsports.com/info.html (866-708-7744), they have a local phone number further down the page under the 'warranty policy' section... 586-791-1679, which appears to be registered to:
Mark A Ptaszek
(586) 791-1679
36374 Union Lake Rd
Harrison Township, MI 48045-6647
Could be an outdated listing and it might be the business's local number now, but if not, that may be someone else who's involved, fwiw.
Same address, different door number. Probably a strip mall type setup like Speedworks was in.
Nope, UPS Stores are based on Mailboxes Etc (which they bought). UPS Stores use those '#123' things after their street address for the different mailboxes people have there.
'Stripper Motorsports' would have to have a different street address number if they were just in a different spot in the same shopping center (i.e. 20836 Hall Rd, 20838 Hall Rd, 20840 Hall Rd, ...), not a suite number tacked on the end of the same address.
I like using mailboxes for my personal mail since I'd never be home to get packages otherwise... But it's really lame for a business like that to be using one, since they must have their own physical address somewhere to have a 'shop', so why are they not using that address?
We do those by appointment only, no walk ins. We do not have a full time mechanic as of yet. I have a contract guy that comes in and does our work. Same as what we do with Chris and the engine side of it. We are a small business as of right now, start up, so no big shops or fancy equipment as of yet. Our bread & butter is selling parts as of right now.
Thanks,
Brad
Even if it's not a 'big shop' and not a 'storefront', they could still receive mail there if it was any kind of shop at all... and even if they prefer having their mail handled elsewhere, they could list a mailing address and a separate physical address, as many businesses do.
Edit: I had said "But as it is, it sounds like currently the only physical address would be at Brad's house or something like that.", but then I looked at http://www.syty.net/forums/showthread.php?t=37235 , and apparently they do have some kind of actual shop which they posted a few photos of, but why don't they want to tell anyone where it is?

I had to reply over there.............all of that just Burns my A$$ just like Inial or Raymer.... no one trusts them and it poorly represents a buisness starting out. wether they may be friends or not.
