Good question xlr8or,

I don't think your stirring the pot either. I just feel that my situation is a little different in that I did not order a car to be built just for me. I am in other words the 2nd owner of the car as I bought Frank Dodd's personal car with 416 miles on it. I have met, called and e-mailed Frank and Reg many times and do get responses from them.

I sometimes feel like however, that I don't want to bother them all the time as I am not really an "ordering customer". I bought the car sight unseen on e-bay for a great price. I therefore did not go through the normal ordering, troubleshooting, warranty issues that others do. My car is a couple of years old when I bought it and the only reason I bring up some of these issues here is that I don't know if others are having the same problems as I am and I always feel that we learn from others experiences and mistakes.

I don't know if this is the reason that I do not get any manufacturer response to my questions or not.

So far I love my BDR and hope to have for a long time. Spring is finally here and up here in Chicago it has been to cold to go into the garage during winter, so now I am outside and ready to fix a few of the problems I have.

Happy trails,
Jack
