What happened to MorePerformance?
Does anybody know why MorePerformance closed? I found them to be an exceptional speed shop. I talked to Mike Osucha (owner) right after they closed. He told me he was going to start a speed parts mail order business but I don't think it ever took off.

There were some folks that had some major problems with some of their engine build-ups. First they closed that part of the business and before long the whole thing went belly up.

I spoke with a guy that told me he had worked there for three years. Apparently the owner was an older gentleman that passed away and left the shop to his daughter. She decided to sell everything to include the property. I believe he said that Nick Williams purchased a lot of the equipment.

There were a few threads in the SE section about it when it happened, they just said that there was no money in it anymore.
