Default Pre-tech in Blacksburg, VA

Can any one recommend a good mechanic in the Blacksburg, VA area? My son goes to college there. He'll be attending his first HPDE at VIR later this month so we'd like to take his car to someone who will look it over really well. He drives a 2000 Camaro.

Thanks!
Nancy

I'm near Roanoke, Va. which is about 40 miles from Blacksburg and have done one HPDE at VIR and am doing another HPDE at VIR on Nov. 19 with TrackDaze. I have had good service at Berglund Chevy in Roanoke, Va. As far as a Dealership goes they do good work and have checked out my car for HPDE's three times now. Berglund Chevy has also seviced all my cars for about 10 years now with no problems with their Service, so far. As far as a Personel Mechanic I can't help you there.

Go Hokie's, I didn't go to VT but my wife did (graduated in 1976). I guess I'm a Hokie Husband. My wife does go to all the Home games. VT plays Florida State this coming Saturday in Blacksburg.
