[Fot] [TR] Racing Goodies for Sale

[Scott Janzen]

I read Hemmings for entertainment, not because I'm a buyer mostly.  Stuff 
for sale here comes under the same category if posted by members in my view. 
Those of you who are FOT and in the business commercially often have 
invaluable advice and knowledge, even if you may have a financial interest 
in sharing it.  I am absolutely ok with that.
If it gets out of hand it's clear we'll let the offending party know or 
boycott them as a seller.
