With this type of experience, we can help you get to where you want to be, faster than you've ever gotten there before!  We bring each vehicle to the peak of performance with the individual driver in mind.

In 2004, we took the championship in the NAPA Auto Parts Super Truck Series. It was a great season and we competed with a superior group of drivers. The points race was close all season long and we squeaked by with only 14 points to take the championship. Driver Ron Peterson worked hard for that championship and we're proud of him. The series was re-assigned to the Dodge Super Trucks for the 2005 season and Ron came in second in points for the season. In 2006 the series went through another change to become the NASCAR King Taco Super Trucks Series. Ron and the crew worked their magic again and took the 2006 Championship! Super driving, great teamwork and an understanding of chassis setup for changing track conditions gave us the championship. Let us do the same for you!
