Hi Ron, Oliver and others who don’t want to understand my explanation,

I’ll try to explain it all over in simple terms in the hope that you’ll now comprehend:

1. APART FROM HAVING BEEN ROBERTS ‘EYES AND EARS’ FOR TWO AND A
HALF MONTHS I NEVER HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH EITHER CAMCO OR RF, IE NOT A PARTNER, DIRECTOR OR SHAREHOLDER. JUST A TEMPORARY, UNDERPAID AND HELPFUL WORKING IDIOT.

2. I GET SHOT AS THE MESSENGER BY ROBERT FOR MY SUPPOSED POOR
REPORTING.

3. I WORK FULL TIME INCLUDING WEEK-ENDS AND EVENINGS FOR THE
EQUIVALENT OF US$645 PER MONTH. THE SECOND MONTH, IE
SEPTEMBER I GET PAID THREE WEEKS LATE BECAUSE MR LOGAN CAN
FIND THE TIME TO GO ON A LENGHTY HOCKEY TOURNAMENT. FOR
OCTOBER, MY LAST MONTH, CAMCO PAYS ME IN JANUARY. DO YOU WORK
FOR THAT SORT OF MONEY, RON?

3. IN ADDITION, TO ILLUSTRATE MY SUPPORT I GAVE CAMCO TWO FILING
CABINETS, LENT IT TWO DESKS AND LENT ROBBIE MY OLD 1984 FORD
SIERRA STATION WAGON HACK FOR FIVE MONTHS AFTER HIS CAR HAD
BEEN STOLEN. I DON’T WANT TO SOUND PETTY BUT AT THAT TIME I
WAS GIVING THE CAMCO/RF ASSOCIATION MY BEST SHOT IN ALL WAYS
IN THE HOPE THAT IT WOULD SUCCEED. I GET SHOT FOR THE SECOND
TIME BY MY WIFE (QUITE RIGHTLY) FOR BEING AN UNDERPAID AND
HELPFUL IDIOT.

4. WHEN I QUIT ON OCTOBER 23 (AND I’M SAYING THIS FOR THE LAST
TIME) I KNEW THAT THERE WERE ON GOING NEGOTIATIONS TO RAISE
ADDITIONAL CAPITAL TO ENSURE THE FUTURE OF CAMCO SO THAT IT
COULD BUILD FOUR RF CARS PER MONTH. NOW HOW THE HELL COULD I
HAVE MADE NEGATIVE POSTS EITHER ON A PUBLIC DOMAIN OR BY
PRIVATE E-MAILS AT THE TIME. ANDRÉ 40 PUTS HIS NECK IN NOOSE BY
SO DOING. SUBSTANTIAL CAPITAL IS RAISED THEREAFTER AND THE
CAMCO/RF ASSOCIATION BECOMES HUGELY SUCCESSFUL. ANDRÉ 40,
STICKS HIS NOSE IN WHERE IT DOESN’T BELONG (ONCE AGAIN) AND
ENDS UP WITH A $10 MILLION LAW SUIT AROUND HIS NECK FOR
DEFAMATION. I MIGHT BE AN IDIOT BUT NOT THAT MUCH OF AN
IDIOT.

5. FOR THE SECOND, OR IS IT THE THIRD TIME, I GET SHOT AS THE
MESSENGER OR MORE CORRECTLY FOR NOT BEING THE MESSENGER BY
AFFECTED RF CUSTOMERS.

6. RON, WHEN I STARTED IN AUGUST THERE WERE FOUR PARTLY
ASSEMBLED CHASSIS ON THE FLOOR, US 108 AND 109 AND UK 118 AND
119. WHEN I LEFT IN OCTOBER THERE HAD BEEN LITTLE ADVANCE ON
THE CARS AS I EXPLAINED IN MY DETAILED REPORT. IF YOU THINK
THAT PHOTOS OF THOSE CARS WOULD HAVE BEEN EXCITING IN THEIR
UNFINISHED STATE I GLADLY WOULD HAVE TAKEN THEM BUT IT DIDN’T
OCCUR TO ME AT THE TIME. I POSTED THE HI-TECH/SUPERFORMANCE
PICS AT THIS TIME FOR GOOD REASON. I HAVE BEEN RELIABALY
INFORMED THAT BECAUSE OF THE RF DEBACLE SOUTH AFRICA’S IMAGE
HAS TAKEN A KNOCK WHICH IS GROSSLY UNFAIR, AS UNFAIR AS THE
FINGERS NOW POINTING AT ME. JIMMY PRICE’S SOUTH AFRICAN
OPERATION IS HUGELY SUCCESSFUL AND I BELIEVE PROOF THAT WE
ARE NOT A BUNCH OF USELESS, INCOMPETMENT IDIOTS UNABLE TO
COMPLETE AND DELIVER CARS. BEAR ALSO IN MIND THAT IT WAS THE
CAMCO TEAM THAT DEVELOPED JIMMY’S MONOCOQUE IN CAPE TOWN.
I’M SURE THAT TIFF NEEDELL DRIVING JIMMY’S SUPERB RED MK11
AROUND CAPE TOWN’S KILLAREY CIRCUIT MAKES FOR A FAR MORE
EXCITING PHOTOGRAPH THAN UNFINISHED CHASSIS.

7. I MAKE A POSITIVE POST TO SUGGEST A RESCUE PACKAGE AND BLOW
ME DOWN I GET SHOT AGAIN. I’M LOSING COUNT, FOR THE FOURTH OR
FIFTH TIME? EVEN MY ACCOUNTANT FRIEND SHOOTS ME, NOW MAYBE
SIX TIMES IN ALL. I’M BEGINNING TO THINK THAT I MUST HAVE BEEN
A BAD BASTARD IN MY PREVIOUS LIFE.

8. I’VE BEEN A FREELANCE JOURNALIST FOR 40 YEARS AND BELIEVE THAT
I HAVE A GOOD COMMAND OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND AM ABLE
TO EXPRESS MY THOUGHTS CLEARLY IN THAT LANGUAGE. AFTER
THREE EXPLANATIONS AS TO WHY I COULDN’T MAKE NEGATIVE
REPORTS ABOUT THE RF SITUATION IT STILL SEEMS TO FALL ON
DEAF EARS. PERHAPS I SHOULD TRY GERMAN, FRENCH, SPANISH
HEBREW. OR WOULD FINNISH BE THE ANSWER?

Wondering what I’m doing in the GT40 business
André 40

PS For some time I’ve been negotiating the local build of three British sports cars.
The names of two will come as a surprise when it happens. When it does I’ll
wave goodbye to GT40s and possibly also this forum, which would be a great
pity as I’ve enjoyed my three years as a member.
