That sucks one good well-known shop closing its doors, i wonder what the reason for such decision, my guess is the location since its a hassle for people to drive few miles where there are local shops at peoples disposal.

APH stock prices just gone up :P

Sad day for Z and G drivers......Sasha runs a great shop, there is no doubt SG-Motorsport offered top notch quality service.

I kinda laughed when he said some kid wanted to dump 15k on a $5000 rust box......so sad.

But unfortunately a lot of the things he mentioned were true. It now sucks because we lose a amazing shop that was well known in the community.

Good luck in your travels and in future racing!!!

Just read the posting, it's pretty sad to see him close up but it seems as though he just got burned out.

Sad news. A great shop is now gone.

Sasha, whats the plans with your shop cars? Now that you don't have a garage, how are you going to maintain and develop the race and drift car? Will you still be doing development on the Z?

Best of luck with your future endeavors.

woah!
that's quite surprising.. I thought SG would just keep growing considering the popularity it acquired over the last 3-4 years.
I've known Sasha before he even opened the shop down by Rogers & Keele. I hope he'll still stick around and be part of the car scene, in some sort of a form.

I wonder what he'll do next. Whatever it is, he'll probably do well in it

I just looked them up to start taking my Z there, and they're closing, and very close by.

Bummer.
