Where's Jake? - Page 10

HiImBrian · 12-27-2007

HI JAKE! I hope you read my AIM novel last night haha

-p.s. ur dumb

Wow, just lock this thread already. Nothing's going to happen

vassil · 12-28-2007

Thought, I'd post an update. The contract for the shop expired on Dec 1st, this year. Tim and I were completely moved out by Nov 1st. All that I had there was a couch and my dog for the month of November, because Tim and I forgot we pre-paid the last month of rent. So Jake (VogelPerformance.com) was kicking it there all by himself free of charge for an extra month. So officially all ties between have been cut off and we ended everything on a pretty bad note to say the least. I haven't been there since Nov 30th when I handed in my keys, but have driven by a few times.

Jake seems to still be in the shop. Rumor has it that he is starting a new buiness with a partner from a nearby town thanks to a fairly substantial business loan and the massive amounts of expertise in mechanics, fabrication & tuning experience that he posseses. I have heard stories about a lifts, dyno, welders, truck, big trailers,etc.

I am really itching to start a new thread and call it "Fuck Jake" and share my lovely one year experience with this douchebag, in effort to spread the good word and help promote his new business venture ...

That's good to hear; I thought/assumed maybe you all were tied into this together, but glad to hear you're not.

**JET** · 12-28-2007

I knew they weren't because Vassil had helped people get into the shop to check on shit. He is a good guy and felt bad about the shit Jake does. It will be interesting if he is trying to start up a bigger shop.

**scheides** · 12-28-2007

vassil, let the truth be known! Start the thread, mitsustyle will host it!

**Kracka** · 12-28-2007

I can't wait to read that!

TkrPerformance · 12-28-2007

this will be good

Matt D. · 12-28-2007

Vassil, don't beat around the bush. Too many people on here have been affected by Jake's bullshit and it needs to be known what all is going on.

I agree. Reading some of Jakes post on the DSMlink boards it seamed like he was still leading people that he was a reputable shop. No more people need to lose money to Him.

HiImBrian · 01-02-2008

After months of waiting and countless unanswered phone calls/text messages/aim messages I finally got what was mine! I set a deadline and we agreed he would have a tracking number to my by the 31st. They came in the mail today so I can finally relax. Just thought I'd let you guys know. Thanks a ton for all your guys help!

**JET** · 01-02-2008

I am fucking amazed! Maybe Jake is making a New Year's resolution to straighten this shit out? That would be cool.

HiImBrian · 01-02-2008

haha i was pretty amazed too. He got pretty pissed when I started texting amy. That mighta been what did it. idk tho, I'm just glad it's done

hippiekiller · 01-02-2008

Congrats!!!

123abc · 01-02-2008

Shit's nuts man, I'd like to hear the story, Vassil.

tstkl · 01-08-2008

wow, I've set a lot of deadlines with him, and NOTHING.... he stopped answering my phone calls again. I just want my motor already, even the stock motor back would be more helpful than this shit. Haven't driven my car since september 06, its been TOO long,.... this is rediculous,...

good to hear you got your stuff finally, that makes two of you, including eric. Unfortunately, me and j.t. are still SOL.

Jake, since I know your reading this, just fucking end this already, all it takes is a trip to the fed ex freight place, COME ON.

Matt D. · 01-15-2008

For some of you who don't know I am an administrator on mnsportcompacts.net as well. I was doing my daily checkup of the forum and see a thread in the Trash Bin, moved there by another moderator because we don't allow advertising to non-paying businesses.

I check it out and I see this gem:

Apparently www.vogelperformance.com is alive and well, even the car on the front page has a dsmstyle.com windshield banner. Maybe that has been up their awhile but the site looks different than when I visited it a few months ago.

Jake, don't think you can weasel your way into the Minnesota automotive community so easy. We are everywhere you want to be, and we won't allow it.

I have never done business with him but I will make sure if he starts a thread like that on a forum I am on I with trash talk the shit out of them!

HiImBrian · 01-15-2008

Yea the site is the same as it was before he just changed some stuff around. And that car on the front is his car and has been up there a while. I think I'd be funny for us to all go down to the dyno day and say hello and let all the newbies know about this guy lol.
