Re: What happened to Greg Bannish???

That wasnt very nice to say. Greg is a good guy. I am sure he is still around somewhere. He was never really big on the message boards from what I recall. I am sure if you ask around in the right places you will get the info you seek.

Re: What happened to Greg Bannish???

All this has taught me a valuable lesson, and that is this: Don't turn your car hobby into a business. All you have to do is make one mistake, or get behind once or twice, and all these people who were once singing your praises will turn on you and eat you alive.

I once thought it'd be cool to apply my knowledge to other people's cars, but now I'll never go there.

Yea, take APE as an example, miss an engine or 12, don't deliver 100k worth of stuff and all of a sudden you're a bad guy

Greg is a good guy, I never had a problem with him or his shop...

Re: What happened to Greg Bannish???

I dont know what happened at APE. I only bought one thing from them, and when it didnt show up on time I "squeaked" every day on the telephone and via email until I got a tracking number. Then I squeaked up until it showed up on the front porch. You know, the squeaky wheel gets the grease, right?? My Innovate Motorsports LM1 works great, BTW.

I'm talking about Greg, Mike Licht, and others like that. It's awfully easy to libel and slander folks on these forums and I personally think it's in bad taste. Every shop has problems.

Heck, I'm having problems. I have a DVD to deliver ( 2004 Hot Rod Magazine Pump Gas Drags) and my computer just wont accept new DVD burners, so I am S.O.L. as are the folks who pre-paid for more copies. Lucky for me they are patient, rather than blast me up and down the forums and trash my name, all because my software SH*t the bed leaving me high and dry and scratching my head.

Lightbulb Re: What happened to Greg Bannish???

You a real smart butt ain't ya Skip??? I really don't have the interest in reading stuff anymore. I read about it in a book today about ending relationships. It's called withdrawal into ones self. It should end someday it's just I'm riding it out.

Thanks for the info about Greg. A GM guy at the Cadillac plant wanted to know. He's taking his car to Livernois for dyno work in a few weeks. He wanted to know what happened to Greg.

Later Taters!

Re: What happened to Greg Bannish???

So he merged his company with Livernois, only for Livernois to can him later on? Wow, that sucks. Hopefully he got some type of partial ownership of Livernois, otherwise he got screwed over big time.

Re: What happened to Greg Bannish???

I was just at Livernois last night and they pretty much made him sound like a hack when I mentioned his name.
