Sadly, they're all in Atlanta if you're looking for "nearby."

Yeah, there really aren't any awesome shops nearby tuning wise. But if you're willing to drive a couple of hours, Vengeance Racing is not too far from Columbus. There are also a few more shops nearby in the Atlanta area…..

Sup guys! I used to live in the PC/Columbus area but moved to Bham back in '06. I've gotten my old job back in PC and looking to move back down to this area again in the summer. I am in working in PC during the week though. Just wanted to see what's up and say hello to a few familiar screen names.

Be careful with Outlawz. I've been talked to by a couple guys that know the owner pretty well and have done business with him several times. They say it's a great shop for prices on parts, but don't expect work done quickly. Guy has cars backed up for months.

Welcome to the area! Lots of gear heads around here, there is a local 1/8 mile in Phenix City and a few dyno shops as well.
