Default Re: Contingency money?

When I won in August 2014 and July 2016, I got paid by 13 companies. Some were slow but eventually paid. Longest I waited was 5 months.

Computech did not pay but the lady was very nice and informed me they only paid for 5 years from date of purchase. With the way they handled the situation, I had no problem purchasing the trailer based weather station from them in 2017.

Hogan did not pay but did give me a credit toward the purchase of a manifold. Better than telling me I was SOL.

Killing them with kindness got me a whole lot further than being a jerk. Of course that applies in all aspects of life.

Looks like Hogan stopped being a sponsor. Don't see them listed.

Jay from Computec took care of me. Got my check from them last week. Thank you!!

Everybody has paid me now, except for PAC valve springs. Sent them my W-9, filled out their contingency request, send them a picture of the car showing the PAC decal on the front fender. Not sure what else to do. Think it helps to call? Don't want to offend anybody, but it would sure help to get paid. Got stuff to buy. LOL

If you read what Bob Book says about PAC you will never put one on your engine again ever......

Heck, Ed, I guess I'm blind. I just read through this thread again. I can not find a post by a Bob Book. Unless he uses a screen name I don't know. I'm very old, as you know, LOL, so I may have just missed it.

If I don't get paid, I'll just pull the decals. When guys ask me what all I use, like people do everybody, I'll now tell them I use another brand springs.

I just put my heads together with a new set yesterday. Have 2 other sets of those things sitting here.

Never read any info about PAC springs by Book but I have used them for a while in my SS cast iron stuff. Smaller od with same pressure as "big springs". The advantage is that the spring pocket is smaller and further away from the water.
