Hmm.. that will be my crap insurance company starting the fire just to make sure I can't have one of your great motors. Thats on top of them
refusing to pay me out because they know what I want the compensation for!!!
Best of luck guys, hope to see you back on your feet shortly and just as good, if not better.

I heard about the fire around 1 am thursday morning so rang the mobile to see if all was ok
didnt really know what to expect when i arrived there this morning and was a bit concerned as my chassie and a few motor kits were in the
building
but believe me nothing could have prepared me for the sight i saw
it was a total disaster zone
how you managed to get so much out in so little time is beyond belief
i know you will get back up and running soon and you know i will have the first available chassie from you
and in yours words
eee lad we got your zx10 engine out ok
so lets get cracking and put it back where it belongs
mac#1 motorsports NEW BIGGER BETTER WORKSHOP
cheers you guys and as i said any help needed just pick up the phone

Very sorry to hear the news, as long as everything was insured, you might be in quite an enviable situation, being able to start up again with all the
ideas all ready in place, and you also know what you want to do and how to do it !!
Best of luck with the new set up, things can only get even better from now on !!

Can only really echo what has been said before. Have had the pleasure of dealing with you on a few occassions now and always had excellent service
and a good natter. I'm sure you will emerge bigger and better out of adversity and look forward to visiting the new Mac1 when you are sorted.
In the meantime, if I can help in any way just add me to the list of volunteers.

thats a right bugger, you must call us all in if you need help rebuilding and starting up somewhere new, i'm sure we could all manage 48 hours
off work to come over and help you out as and when its needed.

Guys, that's really sad news.... so very glad that you are both unharmed. Here is hoping that the 'red tape' doesn't take too
long, and you are up and running again very soon.
All the very best,
Fozzie

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Malc - i was one of the daft sods running in and out completely ignoring the fact the roof was on fire!!!! It is so eary ti see thick black smoke
oozing out of the walls. If it wasnt for fireman sam with his thumb over the end of a garden hose (ie Mark) trying to fight the flames back we would
have had 10 seconds less. Believe me that last 10 secs felt like it was in slow motion.
A lot was saved but there was huge huge amounts of gear that we simply couldnt get too. In reality we only managed to move what was on wheels which
seems so little now when you reckon up.
Someone once said to me its amazing how fast you can run when your ass is on fire.................................

Top attitude all round. Hope you managed to get the demonstrator to safety so at least they can get to Harrogate.
Were the jigs and moulds on site? if they are safe getting some level of business back on the rails should possible fairly quickly.
Good luck.

Boyz,
I am so so gutted on hearing your such awful news. Obviously the main thing is you boyz are both well but like everyone else cant believe what has
happened.
MAC#1 has not just a business to us but one of the few in this field where very few kit car enthusiast or business have either not heard of you or
dealt with you. Your both always happy to offer great advise and been a good supplier of parts 'n' toys.
I really hope it's not long before you guy's open your doors again and I'm looking forward to putting business your way again very
soon.
All the Very Best Guy's & Good Luck
P.S. I Hope to be sampling some of that very dodgy coffee of yours soon
