I know this is a little old but I think Rapid Motorsports is semi close to you.

DL Does good work, I live a mile from them. Our shop is located in Philipsburg, about a 1/2 from State College. If you ever need anything suspension/chassis related let me know, we always like to help and like to get to know local customers/car enthusiasts.

Thanks!

That sounds great, you are welcome too anytime. We can offer you a "local customer" discount as well.

If you get some time come check us out, we build everything right here at our shop.

Thanks again!
