here is another short thread

https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...e-program.html

USMCPONY posted this in it
The two sales reps use to butt heads and one fired the other. Then the shop foreman quit a week later and went to brian tooley racing. Two of their biggest assets are gone and couldn't keep the performance shop open.
