Are you going to Minspeed.com or Minspeed.net? I just did Minspeed.net and it loads just fine. Minspeed.com gets a strange error page.

Minspeed.net , The page loads fine and I can use the shopping cart and fill
in name and address but get a server error after that.
Phone number is down also. - Rob

Yes, unfortunately Pete is battling bad health and he hasn't been able to tend to the business in the way he is used to. I believe his wife and family are filling for him.

Yes that is correct and sad too.When I stopped in at Minspeed not long ago a woman behind the counter told me that Pete was at the doctor.I think she was an employee and not his wife though otherwise she would have said so.

Pete sent me an e-mail answering a question I had about an order just last Friday and there wasn't any problem.
