what we really need is a shop that isn't working on the weekends. I think it would suit this day a bit better. This way theres a parking lot, and a lift, and eddie's folks wont be like WOK THE FOK! But then we would have to transpot a grill... Eddie your gonna have to move the van out so 2 cars can be worked on at once.... Which also means 2 jacks and 2 more stands will be needed..

i'm not talking about full blow mechanic's shop..
something small.. just 1 hydrolic jack.. and small show room.
it just takes alot of investment and cash...
i talked about opening one with my friend couple years ago. but we both never had the funding to do it..

I would totally bust my *** to work in a shop. I had more fun spending 9 hours at speed factory (back when it was just james) helping out james (even if I was to help clean up the shop a bit) than i do spending 1 hour where I work now.. Yeah, having a motorsports retail/shop would be bad ***....

yeah not a mechanic shop.. but something like a small import parts shop that does installs on the side. similar to speed factory.
i use to live in those places 4-5 hours a day back in college because my friend's brother own a small stereo shop.
