It sounds like ransomware from what my other contacts in the industry say. It must be pretty bad, been down since Monday and the offices are closed.

Luke, I am hearing the same thing.

And on another subject, what about your venture into racing a stocker?

I had a supplier with warehouses in most states do the same thing. My guess is that it was hack/ransom related. I give them credit for not paying even though it cost them dearly. Took at least 2 weeks if not a month to get back to normal.

It's been 2011 since I owned a stocker, figured it was time to give it a shot again. I will be racing the car a limited amount this year, but my wife Kelli is planning on hitting a full schedule.
