Note on Spam:
|
It's open to question which is worse: spam or the "cure", which seems to be spam-blockers that delete legitimate e-mail. Your chances of getting through are improved immeasurably by sending e-mail with a meaningful subject line, ideally with "C&C 27" in it; using "Hi" as a subject almost guarantees your message will be deleted. Multiple recipients will also put you on the suspect list.

Got a fleet of 27's at your club? We're happy to
. Commercial links will appear at our discretion (basically you'll have
to offer something that's specific to 27's or C&C's or hard to find).
We do not do link exchanges.

Parts and service |
Read this before contacting suppliers: The people listed in this
section are highly skilled at what they do, but with the exception
of Noah's and Phil's Foils, they are not Web- or e-mail-oriented. You will
get faster service if you phone them than if you e-mail them. |

inside the C&C Custom shop). Source for parts (particularly
