ALLEGEDLY

Mr Seddon was one of the Directors of RC Developments. That company dissolved in a particularly unpleasant fashion meaning that many clients ended up with cars that less than ideally returned to them. (Part finished, bits missing etc)

Not long afterwards, Mr Seddon is gainfully employed by Car Planet who used many of the tools, dyno etc from RC Developments.

The key to this is that the original founding partners in RC also own Car Planet whilst both are limited companies.

There is an enormous and heated thread on the Lancer register if you have the time and stomach for it.

Back to topic, I understand that Duncan was doing very well initially. I'll see if I can get clarification on the results and upload them here

What amazes me more is how the MLR still have such a good relationship with them.

Theres also the fact that some of their bigger assets such as their TA cars, tools, rollers, ramps and other such managed to either get sold just before liquidation or change address all at the correct time to suddenly reappear at Car Planet Racing services or whatever the new name is !!!

Its amazing how these coincidences happen !!
