Default Hookups - Rage Performance combine SHOPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As of March 1st 2006 Hookups and Rage Performance will be joining shops. We wanted to share this with the HT members that have helped both of our shops thru the years.

The companies came to the understanding that we could do more for the sport working together than apart. Combined we bring -

2 inground DynoJet's ( which ince we have time will be converted to 4wd )
3 Full time / Certified tuners in DFI-SpeedPro-Motec-and all the forms of Hondata
8 Employee's - 4 Service lifts - Full Fab Area - Every fab tool you can think of and training to go with them ( Mig / Tig / Plasma / 20inch sander / 60 inch Burrking / Band Saw / Press / Bender .... you get the idea )

We are setting up at the IDRC this weekend and plan to run a few of our cars - please stop by and check us out. Please post any questions but not asking for quotes or pricing so we can stay in the rules of the forum.

Thank guys for years of fun racing - Cant wait to turn out some crazy street/track cars form WHITFIELD RACING INC

Well I see that it is my turn to chime in

For the last 8 years or so both RAGE and HOOKUPS have been serving the import/sport compact industry with our skills ,ideas, and love of the sport. WE jason and myself have done a great deal of thinking about this merger and we both believe that we (WhitfieldRacingInc) will be able to offer services unparalleled by anyone single shop in this indusry. With a combined 20+ years of sport compact experience and a large knowledgable staff... WhitfieldRacing will truly be a ONE STOP SHOP. From crazy clean street cars to full blown race cars. Thank you to all of HONDA-TECHs members

Default Re: Hookups - Rage Performance combine SHOPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (HOOKUPS)

Yes the Hookups building will become the new Whitfield Racing location. It is getting a complete remodel due to the amount of stuff Hookups/Rage both have and need to set up. Chris and I have been working so long we really never had time to set up or shops the way we wanted......this time will will.

I'm going to post a better picture of the flyer witj a map asap. It shows my old location and the new shop. They are only about 2 miles apart -

We also plan to have a HUGE dyno day once we are done and the race season has an off weekend.

As for the CoBalt !!!! Plan to see a lot more from us in that chassis....and I promise we won't let you down.
