Slowboy racing,??
Has anyone used slowboy racing, i need to get some servicing work done, i am in Kent and they are local.
Or could anyone reccomend someone in the southeast?
I know Roger Clarke and scoobyclinic are good but they are too far to go.

neil at slow boy racing (top guy)
i would recomend neil all day long and have done to a few peolple already, nice guy really honest and good on price he will be doing all the work on my new project gf8 sti wagon
as for san speed mixed feelings not really the same one on one service as neil or spot on scooby know how. i had a p1 a while back and i put it in to them for a few mods ie: dump valve air intake dcat exhaust drove it up the road and it went bang needed a full rebulid 4k all in all which they did pay for but still would rather it never happend in the first place. if you use san speed the best guy to talk to is pete all the rset dont give you the time of day. you may prefer san speeds why of things and they are bigger but if you see neils set up and how clean his work is i would recomend him over any one in kent, i even have my own mechs for other cars but when it comes to scoobys there is only one guy i go to now

I used slowboy for some work that was outsourced, had a few hassles (no fault of Neils) and decided to cancel the work. Neil was great with the issue, very helpful and happy to refund. With this in mind, I WILL DEFINITELY send my car there and would definitely recommend him.

Couldn't recommend Slowboys enough, top bloke and very honest with work done and prices.
Sanspeed.... As mentioned above, not a one on one service. expensive prices and more of a place you take you Focus ST or Octavia VRS to get a standard remap or real off the shelf mods.
"back in the day" lol Sanspeed used to be the place to go simply becasue there wasn't anywhere else to go.

Looks like Neil's the man. I need the timing belt, water pump and spark plugs changed. Thanks to all your recommendations I feel much better in approaching Slow Boy Racing.
