I drove by last week and it sure looked that way. I was never familiar with the shop, despite living around 10 minutes from it. It looked like boats were sitting behind the fences?

I don't know official story, but basically with the growth in the area, their rent rates went through the roof. P1 the shop has relocated with Tony running the show and, to the best of my knowledge, Jack is still tuning on an as-needed basis.

I heard from a reliable source that the partnership just parted ways and that there was no shady activity that went down.

are you planning on opening another shop,or have you decided to get an everyday,crappy job like the rest of us all have? Tony seemed cool for sure,but i hate that you're no longer in charge.
i'll definitely be in touch-in the near future i'll need you to retune new engine setups on both my cars,and i have a couple friends who need their cars tuned.are you still in the Charlotte area?will you be using the P1 dyno for tuning?and where is the shop going to be located now?
