yeah yeah i know how a dyno actually works but i was wondering if you have to be a member of your club or if there is a huge line or if you have to sign up in advance or if you just pay the cash and drive on up.

I think what he's asking is my fault, I told him that I heard that one of the clubs had a "dyno days" where the club got together and dynoed their cars at someone's shop...I think he wants in on the next one. Big joke at our house is him buying a dyno and putting it in our garage.

From what I know they just do bad work and don't own up to it. My brother took his Mustang there and they built the drive shaft too short, messed up the Lentech-built AOD tranni and scratched the coat of primer black off his driver side door claiming they were "cleaning it" It's f*cking primer leave it alone at least the car is all one color!!! Chris can fill you in but I do know he sued them through the credit card he used and won most of his money back. If you want to know of another bad shop on the peninsula it's called Bermico Auto...they certify their own mechanics and a real B*itch runs the place. My friend used to work there and some shady stuff goes on. Took my Jeep in and it came back worse.

that about sums it up. They had a driveshaft made but it was measured wrong so it destroyed the tail housing of the trany and all the internals. They welded on my traction bars and about 6 months later i broke the driver side bar from the frame at the weld. The trany cooler the installed leaked the second i drove it out of the shop, some other small things that really pissed me off (like AWFUL wiring and scratching my paint job all the way around the car because "it's only primer"), and they charge $90 an hour. That was the last shop I have taken my car to and it is going to stay that way, I prefer knowing the quality of the work that is being done to my car. In the end it was okay because every dime i spent there was credited back to me through my credit card.

Back when Chris took his car there he was still in the process of learning about cars...no daddy to hand down the knowledge it's all self taught, he's really intelligent. *bragging about my little bro again* quote: Originally posted by PunkINa5.SLOW: Sassy was that you that CODY and I were watching do the one wheel peel in the 14 second 69 at Sac on Saturday?No say HI? What up?
I do have a '69 Camaro (12 different colors) and I do have a one legger. I don't ignore anyone purposfully...unless you guys have pictures I don't now who you are...just stop by and remind me...I love meeting new people or people I've met before and just need to be reminded. Sometimes it's hard to recognize people without their cars when I meet them with their cars...where were you guys all day? I had to stay in the lanes, run, line up, run, line up. Was it when I was in the right lane runnin' Tony's blue Maverick? I heard someone read my plates out loud but I was too busy sticking my tongue out at Tony cause he wouldn't stage.
