Hi guys,

I wanted to make sure everyone was invited to the Open House.  It will be an eclectic group of cars, and I hope you can make it!  Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions.

Well having just dropped baby off for the weekend with chaz704 (silver Elise if you were at The Gathering), I can safely say that these guys are going to run a great shop. We hung out with the guys for a bit and gave Eric his first ride in an Esprit. If any of you can make this event, I highly recommend it. They are going to have some great hardware there. The shop looks incredible already, yet they areen't planning on any sleep between now and Saturday. Tons and tons of flat screens, plenty of floor space and, most importantly, the rigt !$%ng attitude.

Here's the first set of pics I've found of the event folks. I met with Velocity today and they had a great turnout and promise more pics. Looks like a good time was had by all.

You'll notice two Lotus in the pics. Although one is hidden under a lift it is easily the best looking car there Smiley

Nice cars!

Do you know if this place is going to be more of a service / maintenance place or an upgrade / mod place?

I think a bit of both, with a tilt towards upgrade / mod. They detailed my car over the weekend and did a bang up job, especially considering that they were on a VERY limited schedule to get the car ready. Chaz704 (eric) works there, so can probably give the definitive answer. Lisa and I have been out to see them a couple times and but esterday was the first time since they got the shop finished - it is awesome.
