Last time I was in CO I heard that they went under. Not too much of a loss imo.

Are they a franchise? There is a Redline motorsprorts in Albany New York area also. Fairly new shop from the sound of things. They look like they specialize in Gen III cars for the most part,

I didn't know they went under....

But I did hear rumors about bad business practices.

I had heard he moved the shop, then they just disappeared from sight. I had also heard of some questionable business practices as well, from his own clients, firsthand. Sad to hear, but when you do questionable work, word will spread.

You probably already know this, but have you talked to RMCR? They are down in Colorado Springs and do exceptional work on many F-bodies.

No actually I haven't. By up here I meant somewhere within 30 minutes of Fort Collins.

So far I've been able to do all the work on my car with the help of my dad and buddies so I guess I haven't really had a need for a shop yet.

Check out Dragon Race Engineering, the manager there has a handle here. He's in the area. I've talked to them on the phone before. Seems pretty knowledgeable.

I might drive down there just to check it out. So far I've done all the work on my car with the help of my dad but I'm not so sure if I want to start tackling some of my more ambitious plans.
