Default Attention inthe Pits

Madman & Co. Racing and JBZ Race Cars have consolidated shops. The reasoning behind this decision was that in order to offer the F-Body community and Houston a better product we need to join forces.
We will still be building "The Best Suspension Pieces Out There For The 4th Gen F-bodies" also we now have the capabilities for alot more chassis R & D. We will be offering any kind of chassis work from Pro Mod cars on our state of the art chassis jig to all out street car suspensions. We also will be doing the new technology conversions as seen by our Mazda RX7 LS1 project, our 1939 Cadillac with a 2003 Northstar motor and our 1932 Ford Coupe with a Ramjet 350.
In endeavor we have bought a building in Tomball Texas(14102 Pine Meadows Tomball Teaxas 77377) and our number has changed to 281-290-8899. We will NO LONGER be doing any engine work only chassis and suspension. We will be still tuning ACCEL and FAST systems, selling VP race fuels, and NOS. We also are stocking a huge selection of AN fittings and numerous race parts.

We have took possession of the building Thursday. We will be starting construction of the 6000ft addition by the end of February. We will have a total of 7200ft of shop plus 1500ft of shrow room and a complete 2000ft upstairs computer and parts room.

Look for alot of TRICK new front and rear suspension pieces that will blow everyones minds, especially the rules makers.

The shop will be JBZ Race Cars for now. The suspension line will be Madman & Co Racing. ( Lawyers are in the middle so far but we are ready to kill them)

Tony I have a badass steering column for a 69 Camaro, polished with tilt. Call me it would look killer in your ride and I can get the shift indicator for your trans.
