There are a few shops in that three hour radius from your area. Without knowing your exact address I typed in directions from "Williamsport PA" to Rapid Motorsports and Race Proven Motorsports.

Rapid:

Race Proven:
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&sour...on&ie=UTF8&z=8

Those would be my two suggestions. Plenty of feedback for both of them in numerous threads.

hey thanks everyone, i've heard that race proven and rapid are prolly the best shops to go to, thinking i might go with rapid as it is a little closer. i actually bought my car down in dover delaware and i wasn't too impressed with the roads. lowered suspension + dover roads = OUCH!!

I'm from Williamsport and I go to Rapid for my tuning A+.
I've always like cruising those roads in your home town.

I was born and raised in State College (move from there about 2 years ago). Most of my friends back there still run LS1 F-bodys. I wanted to start a club, but never got around to it.

UMI Performance is right down the road outside of Clearfield.

I honestly think Numidia is better....much smoother track and my car seemed to hook a little better.
