        Excellent question.
        He is no longer listed as a sponsor in the header.
        Too bad if this is true, Daniel is an excellent source for researching and offering us the best parts for our M5's.

        I just went to his website and it is still up and running. I plan on getting the sway bar brackets and possibly some new sway bars. I hope he didn't leave for good becuase I always appreciated his input on different products.

        Wow, didnt know he was planning on leaving, I just went to the 5board and it looks pretty new with only 65 members, I wonder if this was a business decision or something else? Josh

        Beastpower is not sponsors currently. I have asked Daniel to choose a domain name for his community that is not similar to m5board.com He is very welcome back when he choose to use another domainnames.

        Furthermore I questions his motives by registering as well as m5board.net. All the above without informing me.

        VERY shady. I guess so much for the group buy. Oh well. Guess he got a bit greedy.
