WV RP Performance of VA/WV a good place?

Hey all, I'm a new FD owner & a VA member suggested RP Performance of Manassas as a great place for tune-ups/service etc.. can anybody comment? According to their site, they've recently relocated to Summit Point WV/a tad closer to me, so it'd be great to hear they're as good as their websites makes them out to be! (I think they're my closest option to zipcode 26253?) I'm basically looking for somewhere for yearly tune/checkups & some general maintenance type stuff, as I'm disabled & will need a bit of help making sure everything stays in-check. As always, thanks in advance!

Oh yeah.. I'm also interested in nearby clubs, especially ones that wouldn't mind lending a hand with mechanical type stuffs on occasion..

I had my engine rebuilt there. Took longer then expected and cost me quite a bit. I don't want to jinx myself but the engine has been running very well for the 10k or so I put on it. My biggest beefs with the place were timeliness and customer service. PM if you want more extensive details.

Anybody else with experience dealing with these guys? Suggestions of other places to go in regards to zip# 26253 would be great too. I'd previously figured the closest bet with a great rep, but that was awhile back/I can't find the thread anymore.

I got a good diag. on my FD years ago from one of their techs there. He actually took me back into the shop and showed me what was wrong with my car. Unfortunetly, it was at a time when i had had enough of trying to figure out what was wrong and didn't want to spend any more money trying to fix it.

Another option is with Ray Wilson at PF Supercars in Frederick, MD. I'll leave my personal opinion of the shop out of the question.

Good to hear. Also, thanks for the suggestion of PF Supercars, though thoughts on shops, quality of work etc. are exactly what I'm interested in hearing. That said, they're a little farther than I'd like to go. I know I won't find anywhere close, but thought I'd heard of some more worthy options in VA that weren't quiiite as far.. (I could be dreaming though, lol)
