Default Pro-M out of business?

Found this post saying Pro-M closed operations on the 21st March. Has been suggested that it is because they lost a $US7million lawsuit by Granatelli Motorsports.

Thread is here;

There is no info on Pro-M's website. Sad news if it's true...

If you read the link provided they will reopen again just under a different name,so there's no need to panic.

To avoid creditors, it's bullshit how people can go under oweing millions to only re open days or weeks later under another name and not pay a thing.

Plenty of conflicting info from the ex-Pro M guys and JR Granatelli. It will be interesting to see how it pans out.

...and for those interested, try http://www.trixieteen.com (NWS, lol)

I was hopeing to hear it's my sister or daughter or even the girl next door, i'd drive the 35min down the gong for that.

Truly a waste for a sort like that to do what she's done, it's rare to get a chick with a great body and a decent head normally it's one or the other. Spose the net geeks who've never had a root would love it.
