Must be the market. The two major boards are not willing to extend further sponsorship/affiliation to another parts place. I had been promised access for a web banner, but it did not pan out. Without the advertising to drive site hits, the current fabulous parts software package costs too much for me to keep it. So very soon it will be disappearing (for now). In it's place will be a new/different concept, something simple and appropriate for the situation.

That's the "bad" news. The good news is all MNFocus board members will still have access to the same selection of parts and pricing by request for the best deals I can do. So if there's something you want, pm me here, or email contact@joefocus.com. Also, please understand the prices I quote you may or may not always be the best out there as I am restricted to the pricing charged to me by the distributor. Additionally, JoeFocus.com is a web store only. I do not stock the inventory. This means it will take longer to get your order as compared to a site with a retail store. I try to make that up with aggressive pricing.

Finally, I would like to thank those board members who have been helpful with the site and/or already placed orders or have plans to.

It's all good. I never thought breaking in would be an easy task. I'd much rather go the word of mouth, grass roots way. I'll just keep plugging along.

I also hope you can continue to offer us some unique parts opportunities.

I also think it would be cool if you got hooked up with more of the unique european parts makers out of europe. The engine bling place comes to mind for one.....

I'm not out of business, just changing the format. All the same brands will be available. The Euro thing is tough to break for deals as they all want buyins as opposed to "drop shipping". That being said, there are some opportunites worth exploring.

$675 shipped.

Rota pricing out there is all over the map. Some I get better pricing on than others. The 56.1 is the hub bore size. Make sure you are getting the correct hub bore size or larger, otherwise they won't fit.
