TIME. ATTACK. GARAGE.

T.A.G. "You're it!"

Or at least something with time attack in the name...

Time attack is already huge in Japan, and is gaining popularity world wide.

we haven't come up with a name yet.... Ramy is like dead set on Intransigent.

Time attack has been a hugely popular thing in Japan for a long time now....but I've never seen a shop name that has the words "time attack" in it

I'm trying to have it be something that's reflective of us being endlessly seeking perfection in ALL aspects
For a brand name I think that "Spirit R" would be a great name. I'm not sure how well this would go over with the FD community.... But I think it sounds great, maybe I've been influenced by Mazda a little too much... I think it fits the mentality or "Spirit" for performance/perfection you describe.

The name really doesn't limit itself to one aspect (Power, Suspension, Aesthetics) of the aftermarket but still focuses on performance with the "R". I think it could work for a shop name also, but some might be inclined to add Motorsports/Autoworks/Automotive... etc. to the end.

That has to be damn near the worst name ever. Not only do people not know what it means, probably can't say it,and probably won't pronounce it correctly. A brand name needs to roll of the tounge smoothly, Intransigent rolls like a cinderblock.

Charlie, you come up w/ something better, and I'll gladly change it - even though at this point a lot of permanent steps have been taken using the name (as we discussed MANY a time).
