Quite a saga. I read all 111 pages over the past couple of days, do I get an MSRP allocation?

I hope the victims are are properly made whole without a fuss.

There are going to be some interesting conversations at Rennsport Reunion.

No MSRP, but a star sticker. Impressive you make through it all. The book is an ongoing series. Who knows where it will take us next.

I just wanted to add that I found the whole story to be a bit sad, because I have a nostalgia for Champion racing. I grew up in South Florida and I was a fan of their team. It’s a disappointment. They should be remembered for winning at Le Mans, not a scandal. I hope they catch the guy soon.

First we've seen "wealthy car buyers". As if that downplays the fraud. Did they run financials on all the victims? What next, 1 percenters?? Example of a dumb headline.

^^^Replace 'Wealthy Car Buyers' in that headline with 'People Willing to Spend Absurd Sums of Money on Cars' and it would be accurate.

Can't believe I read the whole thing. What a bunch of chumps at Champion. Probably find SS living in a spiderhole like ole Suddam Hussein. Hours of entertainment in here. Hope all the folks get their money back and a satisfactory car and deal. Never been on a forum with as much passion as Rennlist. STG the man. You go STG.

This is what they're about: "MFI-Miami only does one thing and we do it well. We fight. We are not afraid to take on Wall Street and the government. MFI-Miami takes on cases where we believe we can successfully utilize our combined 60 years of financial experience. We liberate victims from the slave masters of the 21st Century. "

Don't you know, only wealthy slave masters can drive GT cars.

Dan, thanks for the info. Didn't even bother to see who these clowns were. Wouldn't even have posted their story.

Don't flame me here ... just passing a lead on. Not a verified fact. Not meant to detract here, but could be a big piece of the story here.

* I will retract if not accurate.

Following up on my post here and willing to clear things up. There is no evidence on Shiraaz being with Dave Maraj the night he passed away. The drowning investigation is indeed closed at the current time and has not been reopened.

Wair, wait, wait...you’re telling us that your ‘credible source’ turned out to not be credible after all, and your ridiculously irresponsible insinuation in this ****show of a thread that a tragic accidental death may have been a murder tied to this fraud was actually false and totally unsubstantiated?! I’m shocked.

If you have any good leads let me know. Prefer LWB, but other than that perfect. The sales guys there are actually very helpful. Spoke with Bruno.

Not sure what this has to do with the subject here? Best to stay focused grasshopper. I'm not getting off topic here myself at least. Just following the thread like everyone else. Goodnight
