I can go to the SRS section at anytime and pull videos of MANY members racing, street racing, burning out on private/public property. Just in case you want to argue that, don’t.

You misunderstood what I was saying.  
Regardless of how good the work is, people will still assume Howard only works on chose whistlers’ cars with how many can be seen. People will often find it hard to see past all of it. I couldn’t care less, usually, who represents the business if I constantly see good output (not power, but work output) but there is many that can’t. You’re looking at it from a business owners ignorant point of view. Not the potential customer’s. Note how many people are agreeing with everything I have said. I know you’re going to try to think of me as a liberal and bring up politics and such, but I’m just giving you the facts of what a potential customer sees.

Shift518 is not a business. And obviously people have caught on to Shift a-holes since the forum is monitored by law enforcement and Shift has a bad reputation when you talk to a lot of people. But thank you for helping me prove my point by bringing that up!
