Sent 3 or 4 e-mails since early May....
Hopefully CRC can reorganize and make a comeback... But with nothing than backorders/out of stock, slower shipping and poorer customer service i fear its a too long haul.

He is shutting the store and tracks down, as of today they are no more. He is going to keep the online store going, and I think this will be a good thing.
For years CRC has had everything you ever wanted, but the last 3 years JON stuck his neck out bigtime for the local racers. He went from a small location to a 20,000+ sqf location, and moved from there after 2 years to be part of the Charlotte speedway project.
I think now that he is completely away from the 11,000 a month rent and extra expenses from the track you will see things get better. Everyone has to admit the economy sucks, and it hit the SE at the worse time for Jon. 3 or 4 years ago it was not out of the ordinary to see 150+ people at a club race here, those same tracks are struggling to get 20 people each week, if they have not closed already. 5 or 6 years ago Lance was getting 3 or 400 people for a club race at his house, those days for this area are long gone.

sad but true, i remember coming down for the watermelon classic 8 in aiken s.c., anyhow while down there we also went to lances track, i think farm2? Insane, and ALOT OF RACERS,was awesome...its more like a depression, NOT a recession...that sux, hopefully NO more retailers will come on here and be cheesy about caring, and put it like O btw and post links to there shop...thats VERY low class in my book.

yea if the owner wants the online, shop of his to grow he needs to get more stock and the backorders in check also.

??????LOL SURE AFTER YOU REFUND AS TO MY CALCULATIONS WAS AROUND 60 DOLLARS OR SO. Keep trolling the threads, trying to sandbag a sale, anyone can scroll up and see the calibur of person you are. Go back to selling your lst2 and stop trolling the boards with ur sales pitches...why dont you PAY to advertise like all the worthy retailers do. as you can see, by the way you keep ending up in my threads, i spend money buddy, and in 1 month spent well more than i should with you, dont be mad its ok, just keep going on buisness GOOD ONES AT THAt, that are having a hard time, and unfortunatlly have to close there doors and pitch your store, why else would you be on here, to order something?? pretty lame there bud

I want to thank everyone at CarolinaRC for there
great service. I just received the two orders
of parts that I ordered late last week. What with the
holiday and all, I didn't expect delivery until Thur. or
Fri.. I have made three rather large orders in the past
two weeks, twenty-five or more items, and never got
a run around getting any of the items ordered.
