scottyk Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 Hello Everyone, For those of you that don't know Justin9 had his shop burn down on Oct 22nd by an ARSONIST!!! He was in the process of completing his Chumpcar but now that is not possible. The building and everything inside is considered a complete loss. Let's help out a fellow Chumper and get him back on track! https://www.gofundme.com/Justin9Chumpcar "UPDATE" we have hit the $1000 mark and climbing. Let's keep the momentum going so that we can help Justin re-coup some of his gear. Thank you to all of those that have donated, Justin is very thankful for the support. "UPDATE #2" Thank you again to everyone that has donated. We are now up to $1400 and still climbing!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABR-Glen Posted October 26, 2017 Report Share Posted October 26, 2017 Yikes, that's the 3rd(?) time we've had this happen in the ChumpCar community. Makes me want to be more careful in the shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Class act - makes me wish I would have come over and visited with you guys last weekend at RA even more... IDK if you remember, I worked pit out at the MIS races in '14 and '15 , and remember meeting your team, but never have been sure which guy was (or Is) you. Gotta go donate now...

Justin9 Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 So, I thought, for the sake of others, that I would post the list of tools and equipment I have remembered I had in the shop when it burned. I don't think I could possibly list all the little "use once a year" hand tools I had stashed in there, so I'm not going too... but I think I have covered the big ticket items, and I figured others may want to see the list and maybe can use it to compile their own.

Mine went through, but it took awhile to update the page that said I actually donated. Refresh the page if you think this might be what is happening.
