I ordered some stuff from them two weeks ago. I got a e-mail that it had been shipped. I got about half way through reading the e-mail and there was a knock at the door. There was the UPS man with my order. Now that was service.

I would also like to add that Thunder Racing gives awesome advice and sometimes that advice leads to them not making any money. I think a business that can be honest with you and even recommend other shops is great.. Thunder Racing has shown me that they are not out to take customers money. They want satisfied customers. Right now.. I am a satisfied customer..

I agree. The entire staff stayed late on Saturday to make sure my car was in top shape after the header swap. Their customer service is the best I've ever seen.

I'd have to agree 100%! I've gotten damn near all my stuff from them and never a problem! ...with TR anyways, now UPS is another story!

...hands down the best customer service I've ever had! When UPS lost my Hooker cat-back, Angie did everything within her power to resolve the issue and get me another one asap!

Thanks Angie! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I must also agree with this. Every time I have ordered from thunder, it has been a maximum of 2 days from order time to delivery time. I've even had a couple of shipments that took less than 24 hours from the time of ordering to my receipt of the package. They are definately a top-notch shop.
