it does help when you guys come out of the woodwork a bit. Of course there will be ****-talking when you are not here to represent. Congrats on the record BTW 
Did not see Dave Henninger (sp?) in your lists anywhere. Is he not tuning (working) with you guys any more? Who handles all the tuning?

I got some work done to my former T/A by Hardcore Motorsports last spring and have nothing but good things to say about them.
They have a great facility and staff. They even stayed late for me when I dropped my T/A off and I could call them 24/7 on their personal cell phones if I had any questions or concerns.
From my experience I would say that Hardcore Motorsports is a VERY respectable business for car performance/enthusiasts.

Mortgage fraudsters bragging about a fraud shop a decade and a half ago Having been silent and watching the trash talk about Hardcore Motorsports and Ronnie Duke for some time now, I felt it was time to introduce ourselves and offer our perspective on what the future holds.
First, who are we? Hardcore Motorsports is a 50,000 sq ft speed shop in Flint Michigan. With 10,000 sq ft of retail showroom, and 40,000 sq ft of state of the art shop including fabrication, machining, engine and chassis dyno, we are Michigan's largest performance center. We handle parts from over 500 manufacturers and can modify your existing car or build you a turn key car from scratch.
Now, the race team. Our nine member proffesional race team has a resume that reads like a who's who of motorsports proffesionals. Team owner and company CEO Ronnie Duke has a long history as an automtive enthusiast. With a pedigree that includes the first Supercharged 8 second LS1, and numerous show winning appearances as well as extensive national media exposure. Most recently Ronnie and the team eclipsed the current LS1 ET record witn an 8.11 pass in Bradenton Florida. Company General Manager and Lead Engineer, Jim Stewart Sr. brings 30 years of engine development and test experience to the team as well as years of Nascar, Busch and Arca, racing experience with many of that sport's leading teams. Marketing Director, Gary Penn, brings seven years experience in product development and marketing for GM Performance Parts and nearly 10 years experience in automotive engineering, much of which with turbo and SC boosted engines. NHRA Licensed Driver Jason McNeil, is also Hardcore's lead fabricator with a formal education in racing chassis development and build, and comes to us from the former team of the late Steve Grebek. Another former Grebek team member, Brett Templeton, the teams crew chief and chassis man is also a fabricator at Hardcore. Mike Litwaitis, a 25 year fabricator with Indy 500 winning Indy team experience, also serves as the team cook...and we eat good. Jimmy Stewart Jr., Hardcore's lead technician serves as engine man on the crew and brings years of drag and circle track racing experience to the team. Mark Fryfogle, another skilled Hardcore technician, backs up Jimmy on the engine program and supports the team in all aspects of between round prep. "Muck" McNeil, Jason's father, pilots the so called "Nascar Hauler" as well as serves as a valued team member, preping and maintaining the race cars. Muck brings years of drag racing experience to the team. All in all, the Hardcore team has experience which rivals the best teams in our industry, and we come to play.
For 2005 the primary goal of the Hardcore team is to be the fastest, period. We have the resources for the necessary research and development and are committed maintaining our "Fastest Status." The team will debut one new car, and a re-fitted version of the now legondary convertible car as well the test mule t-top car, which recently set the record. We are a business and make our living serving customers like you and are willing to share our experience and knowledge, call, visit our website or stop by the shop, we'd like very much to include you in the Hardcore family. However, when the green light's on, all bets are off and we're racing, but stop by our pit after for a coke and some words of consulation.
Have a merry Christmas, a happy New Year and be safe, see you at the track.
