PAC Contingency

Darrel Goheen · 04-19-2016, 12:31 AM

Anyone else having problems getting their contingency from PAC springs? They paid me for my national event in May but still waiting for my November Vegas win. Sent them an email a couple weeks ago and haven't received a response.

I'm having the same issue with them. A couple of emails sent with no reply, over the course of a few months. I contacted Jill McKenna and I was asked to fill out the contingency form they have on their website. So I filled one out for each claim and emailed the forms to them, along with another note. I received a one word reply a week and a half ago. It drives me nuts that, after meeting all of the requirements, and them getting a copy of the verification form, that you still have to chase some companies down to get paid.

I sent another email last night. If I don't receive a reply this week I'll contact NHRA about it I guess. I'm still relatively new at all this.

I have the same problem again. Here is my story.
In 2014 I did not get paid for over a year and after many phone calls to finally get a check. I am still waiting on July 2015 now.
I talked to Kelly with PAC on 12-19-15 about the July race. She took my info and promised to get it done. On 2-3-16 after no contact I called again and left messages on Kelly's machine and another in the general mail box. Nothing happened.
On 3-23-16 I called again and talked to Cody who indicated he handled this a promised to get a check out.
I am still waiting.
I really like the springs and have had no breakage issues with them as I did with other brands however, PACs contingency program really needs help.

My experience with component suppliers has led me to the opinion that if you don't get paid, it isn't because there's anything wrong with their contingency system. They're just deadbeats, who signed up for something they didn't really want to become involved in, and then run away from legitimate claims by customers. In short, they reap the benefit of enticing racers to use their products with claims of contingency money, but then stiff them when it's time to pay. All win, no lose, unless you count the customers who walk away.

they quit paying for suspension springs and opened up a new facility on the east coast - a lot going on for them - usually takes more than two months after validated by NHRA
