Many, many places for Pro parts: Corksport, Shane Racing, Anthony Woodford, Protege5Online, etc.

There is a broken record and we just keep playing it.

welcome to the board, we love new members!
good luck with your rebuild, you will need it.
use the search button wisely. anything you plan on doing has been done, attempted, or talked about by someone here.
take a deep breath between sentences. you write like my wife talks!

... now you know it's a broken record, because I have to again say that Shane Racing kind of sucks. Corksport has worked pretty hard to redeem themselves.

Doesn't anybody ever do a search on this forum? C'mon, folks. We need some new material here.

wow sorry aboit that guys it was late an i dident know i had to use grammer control lol, i guess im not used to writin like that.
just wanted some feedback that all
thanks.............

Don't sweat it too much, dude.
We just love to pwn noobs, that's all...

lol ahh ok cool i know how that goes!!!!! lol

Why doesn't someone post a sticky that has both the retailers address/location and maybe board members reviews?

That's kind of a good idea. Maybe we could start a thread that lists the main Protege suppliers and members could post comments about prices, customer service, product quality....
