This is one you don't want to miss. This place should be on "Million Dollar Garages". I used to service their CCTV & Fire Alarm systems - it is a trip!

Got 3-4 inches which is not so bad but it had drifted over the driveway from the wind.

What a cool place! I took a bunch of pictures but still need to load them in so stay tuned. Pretty good turnout, a couple new (to me at least) faces.

Thanks to Chad for setting this up, another homerun!

 Boy you said it. Definetly a cool shop and tour. I live 3 miles exactly from this place and never knew they were there or even existed. First I have ever seen a shop with a nice pub in it as well.

Practically Everything as far as engine blueprinting, onsite product/piece maufacturing, testing and research are concerned Derek,  They even have an engineering connection to Boeing, a close relative,  who they go to for any needed technical assistance.  And a great Bar/Pub for and unwinding at the end of the day...  Awesome vision followed through to produce top notch service and products for it customers.  Way Cool Place with Awesome, Friendly, Knowledgable staff.   Kudos to them!

They have a chassis dyno and an engine dyno room. Plus CNC machines for manufacturing the neat custom products the Ravenworks line makes.

I counted over a dozen specific machines, each with thier own purpose. Then there were several more typical shop tools, machines, necessities that were on-hand. I bet most people missed the large abrasive bins which must have been for tumble cleaning, or the english wheel and metal fab area tucked in between the head CNC machine and the chassis dyno area.

I will be writing this up for the April newsletter. I apologize in advance for the size, there will be a lot of pics.
