Found this thread on the Yamaha R1 forum
http://www.r1-forum.com/forums/showt...threadid=14919

Even bikers have heard of this idiot with no excuse (and no job)

'Mr & Mrs Todd' sorry to hear your car and trust has been abused and you are fully compensated for this. I wonder where this 'disused airstrip' is , I imagine it was actually a freeway.

Congratulations stangman96 you are offically the WORLDS dumbest person.
I couldn't agree more.......it's people like you that ruin this world....and ruin good things for everyone else. Good luck finding a job after this ya DA coz with as many people and as many car boards that are seeing this you'll be lucky if you can get a job at a McDonalds in east bumfuck egypt (no offense to anyone).

I found this thru the thread over at J-body.org and although we all choose different cars to modify and what not we are all enthusiast<sp? >who love our cars and work to take them to the next level beyond stock.

I took the time to register here to post my .02 cents and I might stop by to say hi.

<Racerat> We all send our condolences and hope that you are properly compensated for this. By no means would I stop with this guy being fired I would tell the media regardless of what the dealership does (Just don't tell the dealership that you're gonna report this to the media even if they compensate you) b/c this needs to be spread to everyone, even the people who don't do anything to thier cars or visit the internet.

This is something I feel needs to be reported world wide so that dealerships everywhere fix these problems and reduce the risk of this happening to anyone ever again. I know for sure that I will be contacting my local News Station, Newspaper and Radio station via e-mail with links to the threads on both this board, The SVT board and the J-body board to get the word out.

Unhappy

I ran upon this post on www.feoa.net the Ford Escort Owners Association. I am amazed at how well traveld this post has become. It has to be one of the worst/funniest things I've ever seen. Worst because, well DUH, if anyone did that with My Stang, or my Escort for that matter I'd be pissed. There is no diff between a $35k 03 Cobra and a Beat *** Escort I bought for $400 when it comes to respect from a tech. The funniest thing was the fact that reps from Honda, BMW, Acura, Chevy, and even Yamaha and now Nissan have posted replies. I don't know where this Tech got his training from, but I graduated from UTI, and I took their Ford FACT program while I was there, and I don't remember there being a class in their curriculum about Beating the hell out of a car. Even when I was in Hot Rod U and we dynoed the cars, we were taught to repect them, and to be very carful at all times Anyone even reving a car before a dyno pull got docked points from their grade at the least. People even got suspened or expelled from the school if they were caught F*ing around even if it was their own car they were putting on the dyno. I truly think mechanics need more regulations. I also think they need more pay, and more recognition for the awsome work that most of them do, but it is people like this guy who gives mechanics bad reps. I know If I were that guys supervisor, or even a co-worker with that guy, I would be very dissapointed in him. I might even go as far as finding a new dealership to work at because I wouldn't want to work at a place with a bad reputation. Who in their right mind is going to get their SVT serviced there. If I lived in San Antonio and that was the only SVT dealership, I'd be renting a uhaul and towing my car to Austin, or Houston, or even Dallas or El Paso if I had to to find someone who would treat my car right. Hell I'd trailer the damn thing back to Detroit if I had too. One person went as far as saying the guy had no respect for the hand built engine. When it comes to my Mustang there is no fooling around with it because I built the engine with My OWN hands. Let me hear about a mechanic or a parking attendant so much as getting my car over 5 mph without me being in the car. Then let me get ahold of his car, or his neck. I hope it is true that that guy got fired, I wish there was an Americas Most (un)Wanted list for mechanics. He would be Public Enemy #1. With all the training I've had and all the jobs I was denied because of a not so clean driving record, then to read that guys like this get positions as SVT techs, just makes me so upset.

I want you to know that the story has made it to Car and Driver Forums and you have our full support and sympathy. As auto enthusiasts of all backrounds, we are appalled at the situation your Cobra was subjected to and are motivated to help stop these types of events in the future.

Best of luck to you.

Caught wind of this on www.automobileforum.com and this is just horrible. This is not your property and it is not your right to abuse this property. Always respect other people's property one day if you don't it will get you killed. this tech should definately be fired. His certification needs to be revoked as well.

This post has made it all the way to Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Just wanted to let you know that we at www.torontocivics,com support you and feel your pain.
The kind of car doesn't matter, we all have the same interest just different manufacturers.

Needless to say, we are also shocked at the way this car was driven.
