Fantastic service from TRE Motorsports!

While I try to get most stuff from our host, I found myself desparately needing some RSR rubber tiedowns for the front and rear lids today (I broke the front hood latch).
I called Dave at TRE and, at 5:20pm on a Friday before a long weekend, he got them shipped out via FedEx for some very quick delivery. I'll have the car on the road quickly and it's all because of Dave! It's things like this that make me wish I were closer to TRE for service on the car.

Thanks again Dave!

Andrew M

Well, some people are more impressionable than others, and are more susceptible to mind control. larger torsion bars, revalved shocks, sunroof delete, SSI's And others can be manipulated through subliminal messages.

Tyson, you shouldn't say things like that! We, at TRE never try to perform any sort of psychological tricks MFI or your "mind control" fiberglass hood and fenders . We don't need this sort of treachery twin plug heads and strive to get away from any sort of gimicks that some my feel necessary to conduct business boxster brake upgrade . I am ashamed that you would degrade our establishment in such a way externally adjustable Konis Now, lets get back to work on our clients nice, stock automobiles with RSR flares and a 3.6 and stop all of this high performance foolishness horizontal fan turbo motor

Sorry, you lost me there Jeremy. Most of those aren't going to be legal for the spec class. But lightness? Yes, please.

Oh wait...MFI might be legal on my 3.0. hmmm....

I left my car there for a week once. Felt kind of funny leaving the keys with Dave. The car I left at TRE was pretty nice. It hasn't been the same since I got it back. It seems almost...evil. I suspect Tyson had something to do with it. Can't prove it, though.

My SC is also there getting some Evil work done. Tried to fight the spell but it's no use.

What a great crew. Pure Evil Geniuses.

Thanks TRE!!
