The open house was a lot of fun. Good people, good food, and some nasty cars. Really gave me the rush I need to drop my car off and pick up a race car.

Was a very good show! I actually did some tiny burnouts, which I do not usually do but it was fun. Had a blast.

Congrats Nick,MIKE,mike,Brandon aka hippie, you guys are some humble down to earth guyz. And it shows in your workmanship!! I wish you the best in the business!

I had a lot of fun! and Im sure everyone did also!

On another note I want you guyz to know that not all COPS are like the one that showed up today, that behavior is unacceptable!! I wanted so bad to say something and dare him to tow and threaten to damage a vehicle that was just sitting there. BUT I have learned to pick my battles and if I would have. Like making a supervisor come out to the scene to make a complain, then the rest of his crew would of "marked" the shop because of my big mouth and it wouldn't of been fair to the guyz at the shop getting harassed and stuff, so his FAT AZZ wasn't worth it!

But all in all I had a great time and can't wait for you guyz to put on my FAST 90/90 baby, mike send me a price please!

Thanks guyz for taking the time to listen to our questions and putting up a good get together!
