where at is your shop in town? lol also when i think of Kevin i think of my old boss down at Tripnozzi Muscle Cars, Im sure its not the same guy.

[boggerunner]

nope, kevin owner of aor

[GJToyotabug]

AOR Im completely clueless as to what that is, not Alcan Springs is it?

[boggerunner]

advanced offroad research, used to be the best toyota 4wd shop in town, and my favorite hangout, i spent hrs in there chattin with kevin and randy, and buying parts

[GJToyotabug]

oh dang man i been spending to much time in the muscle car thing. where are they at?

[FireGuysRacing]

The shop is on River Rd. across the street from the County yard and where the National Gaurd's yard is.  Take Grand to the west over the railroad tracks from First and make your first right at the signal and it is a yellowish colored metal building on the right (third bldg I think).  AOR used to be one of our sponsors and Kevin has been a co-driver and driver for years with us.  We now help pay rent on the shop to use it for our race shop.

[THK Matt]

awesome, thanks for the update bogger.

[sweetmeat]

downey gets those axles from race runner. I would know i used to work there

Did you used to work at downey, or race runner?

[THK Matt]

any more news

[FireGuysRacing]

No......sorry.  I'm a slack b*std and when I have had the time it has gone to the race truck.  Hopefully I will have some more time in the fall.  You see, I have to drive 2hrs each way to go work on these things.  The shop is in Grand Junction, CO and I like up near Aspen where you can't afford any space to work on anything.

Dang mang that truck is sweet... What kind of fiberglass front end did you use and are you happy with it??? Thanks

[FireGuysRacing]

I got the fiberglass from Hannaman in California.  I am happy with it so far, it's pretty thick so it should last awhile!
