I will tell you this much, IMPACT won't get any more of my money from now on. You would think especially after buying 3 new suits, gloves and shoes in the past 2 years they could help out a kid for a school project.
BELL HELMETS and HINCHMAN SUITS are the best! I then phoned BELL, Rantoul, IL. and a representative told me that she would do her best to help. She called someone from Hinchman and she said she could help out. The pieces of scrap material are on the way.
These 2 companys need supported. We buy their products to do what we love to do-- RACE! The least they can do is help someone out with something as small as this was. BELL and HINCHMAN DID! Thank you!!!
Dwayne.... Exactly what purpose is served by copying a post from another board here - especially when that post blasts IMPACT?; if you want to offer an opinion on that post and poster, then you should do so. The fact that you offered no editorial comment about it tells me that, most likely, you were just trying to stir things up here....
The original poster has a right to post his opinion; your post is just a poor attempt to stoke a fire......IMO:thumbsdown:
