jesus i've not struggled to give money away so much since trying to sign up for RAC trackstar.

they've got a splitter i'm interested in buying but their pics are a bit pants so i thought i'd email them for some more. no probs said the email, 'we'll send some out.'

no they didn't.

i called them. 'we'll email some out.'

no they didn't.

called them today, spelt out my email address. 'we'll send some pics out'

no they haven't.

FFS, send some pics and unless it's been laid up by stevie wonder i'll buy it!!

so if anyone even remotely even knows jw racing, give them a nudge and get them to send me some pics as they're doing themselves out of a sale!!!

About 5 years ago I bought a lot of stuff from JW Racing as I sort of got to know Jamie who owned the outfit

They were then taken over by "Amber Performance something or other" and I stopped buying from them

How about trying the new owners

i've tried contacting them through all the contacts i can find, couple of email adresses and phone numbers.
getting in touch with them doesn't seem the problem, getting them to do a simple request for something that's over £250 seems the problem!

shame really as it's just what i want, but oddly enough won't fork out that kind of money for something that can only be seen through crappy pictures.

i've bought from them before and had no problems, can't figure out why the hassle with this one?

 

Jamie is the proprietor of both JW Racing and Amber Performance.

 

well whoever runs the business is obviously doing really well for themselves. so much so they don't need my £250 for sending a few photos

 

AFAIK Jamie does not own Amber Performance.

I was after some coolant hoses quickly, JW had some on their ebay shop, with a huge delivery disclaimer saying if parts are out of stock then delivery could be x amount of weeks etc.

So I ask a question "Are they in stock ready to go, if so i'll buy it now etc", just got a reply to say refer to disclaimer in the advert.

Yes I did, so acted on it - so if you can't be arsed to check, I go elsewhere

 

Is this another 'bedroom' outfit.

 

sorry, meant to update on this.
after sending a rather stroppy email to them they came up with some pics. quality looked good so i went for it, turned up this morning (very speedy delivery!) and pleased to report it looks spot on it won't be fitted for a while so can't comment on fit, but should be ok.

this is the 3rd thing i've bought from the company and i would say that for things they've got in stock they ship it out very quickly.
does seem communication could be improved on though. when it takes someone to get the **** to prompt you into a sale there's a bit of a problem.

on the whole though it gets a

 

I think Jamie started off running at home but was bought by Amber Performance - these guys are massive - dont think Jamie is connected to Amber.

 

Hi Shaun, hope you're well!

I still pop in here from time to time, but I'm definitely not part of JW Racing anymore and haven't been for a few years now, although I did enjoy JW Racing and the Scoobynet community!

Long live bedroom motorsport!

 

Hi Jamie......... great to hear from you, and how's Scott

can you PM me your e-mail or drop me a line on shaunwhitehead@aol.com

Shaun

 

YGM!

 

Glad to know you enjoyed it!!

Shame about the people like us and the many others that I know that you owed money to!

 

oops................

 

thread resurection leads to fight shocker is this another chapter in your scoobynet book webbie?

 

Please excuse my nievety here but JW racing sorted me out with some bits and pieces when I first joined SN.....all delivered as promised.

Is there some hidden agenda webby?

Shaun

 

Midlife......
I am glad Jamie sorted your out.

If I have a problem I don't hide behind a hidden agenda mate.... he owes ScoobyNet Ltd (I am a director of this company) money as he does other companies! Plain and simple!

Not being funny, but before suggesting I have an agenda, I suggest you check the facts first...... or maybe don't comment if you don't have them.

Regards,
Shaun

Perhaps "hidden agenda" was the wrong word to use, my apologies.

What I meant to say was that I've been on SN for quite a few years and I don't recall a lot of flack flying about JW racing like, for example, Pete Croney / the "old" Scoobysport.

Shaun

 

Midlife,
Thanks for the apology.

Just to underline this is not JW Racing I am referring under any new ownership, it is that associated to Jamie previously.
