I was not going to post this but what the heck. The main reason for me not leaving my car at CJs is that he wanted $1,000 for a finished set after they were prototyped which he believed would be a healthy discount from the $1,500 he thinks he can get retail. Usually any time a aftermarket company uses a customers car for prototyping a new product the customer will receive the part gratis for compensation for using the car 2-3 weeks or whatever time it took. However with CJs being a smaller operation with probably no marketing or R&D budget I can understand his reluctance.

I thought of a plan this morning which may work or may not work. How about we set up a Crossfire header fund? If we can get 20 people who are serious about this to kick in $50 toward the first set I will let them have my car for prototyping. I will inquire about doing before and after dyno runs. I have not spoken to CJ about this at all but if he saw he had 20 serious buyers, his production costs would be reduced and the $50 could be reduced from the final retail cost. What do you think?
