First, this is one of those stories that I wish were not true. I can't even imagine what it was like to go through this. I think we are all waiting to hear more detail on how the shop handled the situation. Who informed you, what did management/owners say to you? Did you talk to the guy that crashed it and if so how did that go? Most importantly, is the shop 100% liable for this and are you being compensated appropriately or how they feel you should be compensated. I would say they should not have taken the car out on the road but King Motorsports took my Integra for a drive after they tuned it as well. Then again, it wasn't WINTER and was only a mildly modded FWD car! GL with the new project!

Shop owner was driving, got a call from him saying he just wrote my car off into a building, I told him to stop lying to me he said he was dead serious and to get there ASAP, 100% there fault, dealer plate on vehicle, my insurance was off car, i towed car there for tuning, I got paid by his insurance company.

All is good now got paid got a new car with tons of potential.

i just can't believe that man..you sound like a patient person but I for one would be outraged after that incident. My goodness. Hope you enjoy your new ride though. Looks clean already and hope to see in the future what you'll be doing with it

wow that is crazy.

All things considered, I can't believe how calm you are about it.

I will not be taking my car to a dyno shop in Newmarket ever.

Did you get to keep anything off of it or did you junk the whole car? I was curious about the radiator specs, in need of one for my swap.
