Dominik Bahn and Carbostuff Engineering, it seems this is one name that just will not go way, and every day we are contacted with another new story of theft, fraud and deceit, the most upsetting part is this is being done to fellow petrolheads all over the world, with customers and contacts especially from Australia and New Zealand, making contact with us daily now.

Everyone that we speak to has a similar story, and everyone thinks they are a fool for handing over their hard earned cash, for zero return, but when someone advertises what you want, and the industry standard is to pay up front for custom manufactured parts, you pay and expect to take delivery of your parts, unfortunately Dominik Bahn has already planned out what he will do when he gets your money, absolutely nothing, well we are about to change that with this post.

since our last blog, his bank account details have changed, he now has a new account, apparently the TAX office have claimed the account and all of its funds, allegedly.

Since our last blog post, we have heard from various people around the world, all with the same problem, ordered and paid for parts, waiting months and months for delivery, where parts do not arrive, Broemmler Motorsport in Germany for GTR Parts, Koala Furniture in Victoria for Porsche GT3 Parts, Modena Racing for Audi R8 Ultra parts, Stephen Bolton from New Zealand for Mercedes Engine parts, and this last week, Terry Home who has also been added to our long list of recent victims that have lost money dealing with Dominik Bahn and his company Carbostuff Engineering.

If you add our funds along with what Amber Performance is still owed to the list above, it’s a lot of money, if you then add the other huge list of people over the last 2 years, and its beyond theft, or a scam, its fraud on a whopping scale.

As we stated in a blog post from our travels, to Neumunster Germany we found 2 addresses to be Fake, the third address is where the so called Carbostuff business is based and run from, we doubt you will find him there, and although you do have signs of life, with a post box wearing the company name, we didn’t seen anyone at these premises with our four day stay in a local hotel, but if you need to camp outside and wait, then the address details are below.

Carbostuff Engineering, c/o Rudolf-Diesel-Str, 7a 24536 Neumünster, Germany.

Since our last post we have also uncovered Dominik Bahn’s Home address details, which we are more than happy to share with our Motor Trade / Motorsport community, we are sharing because this is happening to more people than we currently know of, so if we can help other fellow petrolhead and enthusiast, then surely that’s a good thing.

Dominik Bahn, Holsatenring 3, 24539 Neumünster, Germany or we have Hermannus-Muller-Weg 1B Neumünster, Germany

These address have been confirmed by a customer that Knows all about Dominik and his whereabouts , he knows him extremely well, from their early days.

Please feel free to send us any information of your own loss, we are working with Peter Folster, from the German Crime Squad, and the more information we give him collectively the better, as we have said previously, this is a very serious fraudulent crime, Carbostuff are earning obscene amounts of money, scamming the enthusiast, its big theft, and it needs to be stopped.

More news has also surfaced over the last couple of weeks with regards Dominik Bahn, so I don't think there will be too much surprise that he is on probation for crimes of theft, for which he has served time in prison, we have the probation officers name that he has to report to.

as we have full details of his Probation helper, we would rather not publish online, but will be more than happy to refer you directly, if you get in touch with us.

Please circulate this blog post, as we may just stop this criminal once and for all.

The man behind the fraud... DOMINIK BAHN_CARBOSTUFF ENGINEERING

 

Ever since we can remember we have always had our vehicles looked after by Hartwell Motor Services, for all our mechanical, vehicle servicing and all our MOT work, the service is second to none, and we can highly recommend the company, driven by a passionate owner, there isn't much they don’t know about fixing or looking after your pride and joy.

Proprietor and personal friend Andy Hartwell, has always been in and around some form of racing, not to long back he was terrorising the Legend grid, with some real ballsy racing, and we have to admit, he was pretty handy behind the wheel.

This year he has decided to submit to his cravings, the force is strong for the love of competing, and he does love a challenge, so at the start of the racing season his mind was made up. The first thing was deciding on what racing series he wanted to compete in, as there is so much racing that ticked most of the boxes, the Legends was a no go, he's been there and done that and was after a different challenge, with a few in mind his final decision was Mascar, it ticked all of the boxes, and for those that are not in the know, it’s the miniature form of Nascar, that's run over in the states, and boy are they a blast.

With the class of racing decided it was time to look at the transportation, getting this race car to and from the circuits all over the UK, with the odd trip to Europe, and with a 7.5 ton truck secured, with adjustable tail lift, it was time to go Mascar shopping. As with anything when Andy is on buying spree, a bargain was found, with a fresh unpainted shell, for him to plan out his paint and decal theme, and with the shell all painted Kawasaki Green, it was off over to James at Signs FX in Northampton for a bit of graphic designing, and we have to say it came out rather good, nice to see a bit of VAD in those lovely graphics.

After a few niggles with various parts, Andy upgraded lots of the suspension components, so everything is now adjustable for fine tuning the car set up from track to track, the first test run was at Birmingham wheels, just outside the city centre, and the car looked, and sounded superb, he also reported it handled like it was on rails, and the first race meeting at Mendips to get a feel for racing the car went down a storm.

Next outing for Hartwell Motor Services crew will be at Ipswich raceway on the 6th of August and we will be there in full VAD support. For anyone that’s interested in what makes this little fire breathers tick, Below we have listed a bit of technical info on these little pocket rockets.

10 things you need to know about Mascar

1 Tyres are restricted to 8 slicks & 8 wets per season all bar coded and driver allocated to individual drivers.

2 Engines all sealed and are basically a standard Yamaha J 1200 or XJR1300 engine units costs from £250.00 for second hand

3 The cars are basically all identical and makes for close racing and the size of cheque book dont count for anything in this series.

4 Shock are all restricted and identical

5 You don't need loads of spares because we all use the same equipment we have the parts track side at every meeting.

6 All drivers are on raceceivers to make fair and equal racing and make drivers aware of spun cars etc, saving on car damage.

7 Reverse grids give everyone that, race win opportunity, drivers are graded every meeting on averages.

8 The cars hold value when looked after as you can’t build or buy cars from outside the series protecting your investment ( Many cars have sold for more than the original drivers have bought them for.

9 All our officials are voted in by the drivers yearly and we Police our own series so no confusion about rules

10 We are a family friendly series that wants to encourage the NASCAR style of Racing to the UK and as an independent series we have the chance to also do long track and other style of tracks on occasions bring the fun element back to motor sport.

The full report of the Ipswich meeting will be posted on our blog, so look out for all the details coming soon.
