Can you talk about your techs or installers?

Glad to have you in GA Sharif, exciting news and well deserved kudos from the Z & G community. I haven't been to see the "Big Chicken" for a while, but I know exactly where Cobb Parkway is.

Enjoy the ATL traffic...I'll stop by next time I'm in town.

Yes I can. I am have hired one technician from Charlotte to begin work immediately. I will be supervising and assisting with all of the mechanical work for the first couple months. The final quality checks will always be performed by me...and the buck stops here. I will stand 100% behind all work performed on a customer's car...no questions asked. The tuning duties will be handled by me too. In addition to this technician, I will be interviewing and trying out two additional technicians, that already live in the Atlanta area, so I will be making an additional hire within 4 weeks.

Kshep, great seeing you at ZDAYZ. I lived in Los Angeles for over a decade, so Atlanta traffic will be walk in the park.

Sharif,Congrats on your bigger and better business venture.I'm sure you will make it work.You treated me right when I purchased my APS TT and other goodies and always returned my calls(unlike SGP who is always out to lunch).Put together a Grand Opening Party for Z & G owners and us guys from Florida could put together a road trip.Remember customer service will keep you in business for a long time...it served me well in my business ventures.

Sharif,

Thanks for all of the help recently.

I will be driving down through Knoxville around June 22nd on my way to Vegas... I hope to have my new engine in by then chasing your HP #'s. Maybe I can try shooting down 75 and meet you on the North West side of Atlanta if you are going to be downtown.

Congrats on your new Business and I am sure it will be a success with your friendly business manners and professional service.

As soon as the shop is up and running, and the dyno installed, we'll plan on having an open house, with dyno day, and Barb-B-Que.

Thanks again.

Congrats man, although I've known about this for a little while.

I'll work for you for peanuts if you cover moving expenses! I'm a quick learner; before my Z, i hadn't even changed oil haha.
