He only answers people that he already has provided a service for that are on his bandwagon. I do feel kinda of bad for anyone stuck in the middle of this even though they should have read previous threads and posts about what was going on. If he gets shut down people will get stuck missing parts for good hate to be in their shoes.

Honestly tho, james' idea of an open dyno and hobby shop kinda thing, @jamesm would teach tuning 101 or somethin like that on the weekends, @Ironsquid would do the same with fab, maybe @King Tut would offer performance driving classes.. @Sportsguy83 can find something to do

I'd be down to learn how to tune. It's all about finding folks who have the correct work ethic. I've been in tech for over 10 years now and I think it would be pretty simple for me to get into tuning as long as I made the time for it.

down with one shop...up with another? (Hopefully

)

Im in the same shoes as you, I would love to learn how to do all this and get my hands dirty.

the secret is.... there's no secret. everyone wants to act like it's f*ckin' voodoo or that it takes 10 years in a monastery to learn all the deep secrets. really it's pretty damn easy so long as you have a solid understanding of engine theory. it just requires a lot of experimentation and playing around to figure out how things react to inputs. once you have a solid process, it's really easy, as it's pretty much rinse and repeat for every car, just apply the same process and you can expect the same results. it's very deterministic.

i enjoy it quite a bit, but it's definitely not hard. multithreaded programming is hard.

Sounds like the toni business model.

Perhaps he could provide some pointers.
