I guess one could thank our state government right? Heck Texas is not really affected by the economy at all and those guys out there have no problems dropping the money on these projects. I have a feeling things will be perfect for you guys when the economy goes back up.

demographic as well.... majority of people who own super highend cars out here are older guys, and they are less inclined to mod.... out there you get younger guys owning these cars and such more inclined to mod the car... i its rare for me to even get a zr1 tune period, and everytime i have gotten one its been a 60+yr old man... they generally dont want anything more then a tune..
