Default Vengeance Racing in Atlanta saved the day and my vacation

I live in south Alabama and have no good shops in my area so on my way home from Gatlinburg, Tn I stopped in Cumming, Ga to have Vengeance Racing tune my car that I've had for 3 months and has just never seemed to run right mainly at low rpm. Half way to Gatlinburg on Mon I pulled in a gas station and heard something pop in the rear of the car. I've never heard this before but I thought it may of had something to do w the extra weight in the back ( wks worth of luggage and all 10 pairs of my wife's shoes. Over the last few days the popping sound got more frequent mainly over bumps. I also noticed that the car seemed to be sitting lower in the rear but again the luggage. I told the guys at Vegeance about this noise and after tuning the car they put the car on the rack and found the rear mono leaf was broken and beginning to splinter. HOLY CRAP! The rear of my car was literally be on held up by a thread. So I'm 6 hrs from home and screwed right? WRONG!! Luckily they had one they had taken off a car they had built. They sold it to me at a more than fair price and got me back on the road. I'm not sure if anyone from Vegeance monitors this site but I wanted to let everyone know how awesome these guys are. I highly reccommend them to anyone near Atlanta. Their shop is badass and they know everything corvette. Thanks again Vegeance Racing for saving my day and vacation. The tune is spot on btw too!

Always nice to hear a happy ending

Vengeance has a very good rep around here, lot of the Z06 members have had them do the cylinder head swap and were very happy with the operation.

Funny about the shoes

You're definitely in great hands with the Vengeance Racing crew!
Had a similar experience on our trip from Texas out to the Vengeance facility to drop off our C7 for a VR SC750 build. The haul truck developed a strong miss that had grown progressively worse by the time we arrived in Cumming. After unloading the car, Ron (owner) personally grabbed a tool cart, popped the hood and went to work (very late on a Friday evening, mind you). Considering we were so far from home, it was more than reassuring knowing the VR family was committed to our safe return trip home.
There aren't enough props are kudos in the world for this incredible group of people.

One word that always comes to the top when describing Ron and the guys at Vengeance is Family. It doesnt matter if you're spending a dollar or thousands of dollars those guys have the best customer service. Glad to see you got it back on the road! Next time while it might be tough she needs to limit the shoes to 4 pair max haha
