Press Release – Increasing Performance While Reducing Costs

Posted in Random on July 31, 2009 by Dom

You guys must be tired of me posting, because I know I’m tired of me posting.

Press release I just finished:

Endless Products Last, Save Consumers Money

Huntington Beach, CA (July 31, 2009) – In a globally down economy, consumers are putting more care into the product choices they make. The dollars in their wallets must go further than they have before, and getting the most value from the dollars they spend is vital. With less disposable income available, they are more often seeking quality product that will last. Endless is proud to announce that these new recession-savvy consumers have found Endless products to be the best valued in the marketplace.

Endless has always had a name synonymous with quality, but the increase in new consumers trying Endless product has led to tremendous feedback regarding exceeded expectations in longevity and value. Consumers are finding that while they may be initially spending a small amount more for the brake pads or brake fluid, the pads and fluid last far longer than other brands they’ve used previously. Coupled with feedback reporting that the brake pads are far less abrasive to disc rotors, consumers are elated to find that they’re reducing their consumption and actually saving money by switching to Endless.

“We can choose any brake combination we want in IMSA/ALMS/ACO,” said Rick Mayer, Technical Director of American Le Mans team Risi Competizione. “Endless pads have significantly less wear then any pad we’ve used and are very gentle on the disks. We made the 12 hours of Sebring without a pad change where some of our Ferrari competitors didn’t. We can use a used pad at subsequent events without any concern about performance degradation. Our drivers like the good release and consistent friction level without any fading. We find them to be good consistent pads.”

“Sometimes it’s difficult for consumers to see the value in spending more for product that lasts longer,” said Dominic Chen, Executive Director of Endless USA. “But what we’ve been able to show is that our pads and fluid really do increase performance while reducing costs. Professional race teams and weekend track enthusiasts alike have all reported the same thing: with Endless they’ve won more races and saved more money.”

Hilarious

Thanks to Benson for letting me in on this. It’s literally the funniest thing I’ve seen in a long time.

Starts at about 5 minutes in.
Jesse James goes drifting with Rhys I’m-way-too-serious-about-drifting Millen

Little preview:
Rhys: “You drift in baja, so it can’t be that bad.”
Jesse: “Not together, like we’re holding hands.”

Oh man. So awesome.

I’m good either way. On you.

I thought about taking this blog down because I literally have nothing left to say. But then I checked the stats / comments for the first time in a while and realized there are some of you guys out there still reading this thing which, quite frankly, surprised the hell out of me.

So, I figure I’ll let you people that still read my ramblings determine the fate of this blog thing. Take it down, leave it up, what to write about if anything at all. I’ve literally got nothin’ left to say if left to my own devices. So unless someone comes up with something they wanna know more about, or hear more about, d.o.m. will go dark.

The Race Engineer

Posted in Random on June 4, 2009 by Dom

This is probably going to come back and bite me in the ass if/when certain people realize how un-PC I can be. But I’ve always been a man of the belief that you give credit where credit is due, so…

Rick Mayer from Risi linked me to a new blog by Buddy Fey: The Race Engineer

I’m liking it so far.

See? I’m not always negative. But more on that later..

Endless Enduro Poster

Posted in Random on May 8, 2009 by Dom

Back in December or January, Japan made a poster to promote all the enduro teams that won for us last year.

1022-3

The copy is slightly different in the final version of the poster since what it was in this pic felt kind of funny.

I like the poster though. Pretty spiffy.

Another Subtle Life Reference From Car Culture?

Have you ever been to a fancy restaurant where in between courses the waiter will come by and clean crumbs off your tablecloth with that little scraper thing?

That’s what I was reminded of when I saw this pic:
