Dragon my partner can tell You more about it. We are working with some dealers to do two tone for them. Since My Buddy? could not keep quite I'll explain a little more. Bryan has been in the tuner, rice rocket etc. business for awhile and started from stratch, He is 25. He does anything custom to a car, motorcycle, anything golf carts even, He does. He has a Toyota Celica GT that just won radical div. in Lawton, OK but he has more trophies than We can put on the showroom floor. Right now Celica is stripped bare because He decided it was time for something a little different. That with winning all the time at almost every show he went to, OK his ride. He is also putting a turbo on it so We can race when mine is finished. He is a perfectionist and that is why he is know state wide and outside the state in the tuner world. He is building a Tiburon for My daughter that looks like it should be no place but, on a road race track but, We are keeping power stock. She wants to go to SCCA school so We'll see.
He will tell You from what We have done to H2 so far and still have to do let's just say everyone that has been in it cannot believe it when they cannot lean forward. The first few runs before I got use to it the rig almost tore the steering wheel out of My hands twice. It concerned Me let's say as I usually do not have fear of anything. We are only about half way there on power as I picked up a tuning company as sponsor so it will get better. I was surprised when I saw the new Ultimate Hummer mag and the rig that is working to be the fastest Hummer challenge. As I sit without good tuning let's say, I'm way faster than it by a mile according to the numbers reported and so is KenP. You never know though anything is possible when they are finished and I'm finished I'll line up with Him for the fun of it even if I get waxed. I'll take any challenge.
I have old and new school drag racers working on My rig. They know ever trick in the book and if I have to change heads etc. I'll do that. Dealer said go for it I do not want a rig I sold to not be the best at anything. Warranty no problem.
Bryan builds sub boxes custom and lays carbon fiber. Not pre shaped but, He does it from sheets. I watched i would not have the patience to do it and some time He has to put it into something where He can pull a vacuum around it to make it mold to the part. He will not say anyhting on here that he does not know something about well and has the resource to show You. He just decided He wanted to help guys here and is a very humble young man. He is a Hummer nut by adoption and has actually drove mine in the last 2 months more than Me. I met Him last Year at a small show that both of Us lost to a antigue truck and car from a father and son team. Me in the truck class and He in the car class. They only had 2 div. it was for fund to raise money for a Church to build a youth center and then We found out We went to the same Church of several thousand so it is hard to get to know everyone but, it hurt to lose anyway. In Our defense the judges were real old guys and they picked what they liked for real old guys. Anyway We started talking about what He was doing and I told Him i was going to start a custom Hummer shop that did eveything to putting in an engine to stripping it out and painting pink. So We did it together with 2 different types of shops but, it amased Me how much everything is the same except everything on th H2 is just way bigger when You take it apart.
We can do almost anything electronically in either end of the business as they have mixed into one really. My rig right now is on a lift with the whole rear undercarage out and getting chromed or painted stealth. We talked to others in the show world and We were told do not buy bolt on. Chrome Your trailing arm bars etc. You get way higher scores than if You just bolt something on. They look to see how much physical work You put into it. So it will take about 2 months to finsh i hope as I have a huge show in Texas as does Bryan in late July that We both are trying for. I said I'm not rushing the only show in My sights right now is the HGW show in PITT. 8/12-13. Nothing else matters and We are going to take Our whole shop to that one. It is taking a week and next is the front and it will take a week and then the engine bay will take a week. At the same time Bryan is building a sub and amp system and We are working with a friend to build the 12" touchscreen and PC when He gets caught up. Bryan is making the center console to let the 12" fit. It is tight. having to move the traction buttons over about a 1/2" and move the cigs one on each side and 1 under the traction buttons, WE hope. BLOWNZ06 is near finfishing the HUD. He emailed Me today and has got everything going but a few things yet to figure out. I have 3 companies who are sponsors wanting to use My rig at SEMA so i do not know how to handle that yet. I do not want to make one angry. Oh well it will work out.
Dragon has kept a low profile and watched and reading to see how things work and the protocal that goes on. I hope You welcome Him as He knows things that can really be of help and if he does not He will find it out. He is a great young Man use the knowledge He has been gaining for most of His life. He is a very big Hummer fan and the whole shop is that way and now besides Dragon's car which He doesn't really let anyone touch, the shop all wants to work on the H2.
So We have added to Our ranks of Hummer lovers even though they do not have one except they all say Mine is theirs. Realy the induction and head mechanic will not let anyone work on it but him or if they are helping Him. he keeps the keys locked up and if anyone gets near it I guess he watchs it out of the corner of his eye but, they get a big chewing.
We had a paint company come to Bryan and ask if they could be His paint company because of the perfection Bryan reqires and it is just the way the shop guys are also. Anyway they are taking everything full or empty and all the equip. and bringing theres. They are most likely going to be a sponsor on my or Our show H2 since Bryan has now adopted it as His also. There is some High dollar paint We need so Bryan figures He will get it out of them easily.
Well I just wanted to explain a little more what My Buddy tossed out there.
WE have two sites for custom work so that You can get number to call.
HUMMERcustoms.com and MotorSportsAuthority.com
HC is a front page and being built but, gives an idea of what We do and a number for advice etc. and the MSA site is up and runs although We are having it rebuilt because it cannot hold the 6000 plus parts We have for tuner cars etc.
So if We can be of help We will be proud to.
WE will and repeat WILL NOT step into Jason turf. WE get business without trying to even think about doing anything in His area. I'm getting My first Sport Star H2 rebuild of a 2006 in August and then it will be Katie bar the door, I hope. If Jason does not have something You need We will have Our site up as soon as possible but, only if Jason does not have it. I know what He has and doesn't. My counter guy will have a list and I do not need business enough to take Jason. I admire and appreciate what He has done for Us. There are many guys here who builds things and We do the same. We believe if You can think of it We will find some way to build it. We have as good a force induction mechanic as I have seen anywhere. He is designing the turbo system for the Colorado in His spare time. I just hope We can hang on to Him and He does not get hired away. Well We have lot's of Pics of things We have done and if You out of curiousity would like to see PM Bryan and We can get them to You.
Call if You have questions about something or looking for something You are having a hard time finding.
Thanks Everyone and welcome Dragon He is very good people.
TAZ
