That's a pretty cool read...

olds_cool · 03-24-2007, 10:58 PM

Yeah...should be pretty interesting once it's launched. Can't wait! A diesel would be cool, too!

All I can say is...Stay Away from Tank Sports. I'll bet they are gone by the end of the year!!!

Really? Why? Their recent acquisitions and partnerships show they are on the move.

Kind of interesting. I just assumed that these companies are sort of just 'followers'...buying, copying, etc. I never would have imagined that they're actually sinking money into R&D. Good for them, altho I'll admit I'm also curious about ejcycle's comment....

Cheers,
R.

Guys

To be honestly truthful I have information that would spin your heads. A lot is Public since Tank Sports went Public {Stock Exchange}. I'll have to see what I can legally post without getting in trouble...know why...I'm a Redcat Motors Dealer and Tank now owns Redcat Motors.

Ok, Bruce...you have us all hanging! Post what you can as soon as you can!

olds_cool · 04-03-2007, 10:57 PM

Hey, Bruce...I'm planning on buying stock in Tank. So, would what you know impact my decision? Anything you can tell us about Tank would be GREATLY appreciated! Thanks!

Hi olds_cool

I'll put it this way about the stock...they offered all the dealers a supposed deal and I don't know of any that bought. I'm still checking on legalities.

Hey, Bruce. I never did buy stock in Tank. I'm not too happy with them these days. So, anything you can share with us on what's going on over at Tank?
