Don’t do business with ISpeedway.com
As a business owner I know the value of time when it comes to making money. Nothing will kill a sale faster than wasting my time. A few weeks ago I came across an opportunity to get involved with auctions to make some extra money on top of what I am already doing.
I gave my credit card info and got the package in a few days. Considering this was a new venture I was looking forward to digging into things. Well the business that I already have along with a better opportunity came along so I called up ISpeedway.com to let them know I wanted to cancel.
