Makes sense to me. Thnx to Joe for providing a good understanding of the situation.

The fact is, some members seem to know this service provider, but when asked, a clear explanation was not given by the service provider, not until Joe went a few steps farther, in an earlier post.

It appeared this service provider was sneaking in the back door to sell his items, or so it appeared. That was my thought.

Nuff said by me on this subject.

That is why I contacted John Kelsey of Kelsey Tire Dock for confirmation that Mr. Rusty Small aka Smallhurst is indeed a authorized sales agent for Kelsey Tire Dock. Yes, I think that we should quit beating this dead horse.

How long does it take for membership status to show up under my signature?

I am happy to help however I can. My grandfather said, "There are no stupid questions, only stupid answers." Feel free to fire away any questions on tires. If I do not know the answer, I will find the answer and we will both be smarter!!!

It is not automatic, yet. So it is necessary to let one of the elves know you desire to know the secret handshake, code words and setting for the decoder ring. Once they verify your VCCA membership and work their magic you will be welcomed into the realm.

Welcome! Your in now!

Sounds like all the same steps needed to get into Tony Soprano's gang.

There is a big difference. You can get out of VCCA membership alive if you wish. Not sure why anyone would want to do that.

Yep Smallhurst your name is in the database as a dues paying dude, and the pointed eared elf that lives in the forest done waved that majic wand around your profile....
Welcome aboard.

smallhurst: You might want to add your VCCA membership number to your profile.

I am sorry. I am acting as dense as a hedge post here, but where might I find my #? Is it in the e-mails that I received? Thanks to all for your help. I hope to be as helpful as you guys have been!!!

Rusty, look for a Private Message. at the top of your sign page there should be a blinking flag, click on the flag to get your Private Message.

Again, thanks to the helpful members of the VCCA!!! If you are needing help or have questions about Goodyear reproduction tires, I will be happy to help out!!!!

What are the odds of eeing Diamond Treads in 5.50/17 again. Currently they appear to be unavailavble.

I will consult with Mr. Kelsey about the opportunity for these tires to be reproduced.

I will be happy to share with you current pricing and what the price will be. Contact me so that you can be sure to have good rubber on your ride for the show in Flint!!!!! 816-654-3400
