    For those who don't know Shane on a personal level, he is one of the most honest and genuine people I've ever met.
    What you see is what you get with him.
    No fake. No put on.
    It's great to see him come out of his shell in this series and be himself.
    If he says he paid $500, he did.
    He has always tinkered with cars and it's so cool to see him share what he has learned with everyone.
    It's not easy to put yourself out there and show what you don't know but learn as you go.
    Just wonderful.
    You are doing a great job my friend

      I'm not sure what the controversy about paying $500 was, but it sure doesn't look like it anymore.
      So much so that I'm not sure the name " frankie" is even fitting anymore.
