My Visit to Cobb Tuning

So, ever since MadA posted about his wonderful visit to Cobb getting his alignment, I've been dying to go and finally got out there yesterday (6/17). I had tried to go last Friday (6/12), but they were still out of power from that bad storm that Wednesday.

So, I spent quite a bit of time hanging out and chattin with Chris (the GM) and Neil. Great guys to say the least. Had some fun conversations. Got the G all taken care of with a cool little sheet detailing my specs before and after the alignment (I'll get that scanned and posted soon).

When they were done they told me they were bringing the car around, but after a few minutes still no G. Then Neil came out from the shop area and apologized for the delay because Chris was taking pics of my car! haha

Post #96 on this thread.... hehe

Bottom line, great service, great guys, and an amazing price.

Did you just get the alignment or did corner balancing and/or other stuff as well?

I just did an alignment. Didn't know they did the corner balancing actually.

Sadly I haven't had much of a chance to really test her. I did a nice drift onto the street of my ofice building and she held really well, but I've had nothing but traffic. Plus, I had pretty bad toe on one of the front wheels and the tire isn't so good. May have to replace to get the full feel.

yes they do... ofcourse they wouldnt charge me but at the time i needed to get it done they were so busy they couldnt be able to get me in. and since i wasnt paying i wasnt going to press the issue. and since i had issues with the alignment that grubbs did, sewell said they would look at it again for nothing.
