Colin got tired of running the shop and rent was expensive. I would imagine its tough to be the main wrencher and run a business. He seems happier being at Harris Hill Road. Jasper is working with some Mazda racing team or something. Colin did take care of him before he closed the doors.

I really miss that shop. It was an hour away which was still bearable. I liked shooting the shit with Jasper and Colin. Most of all, Colin does damned good work! I think the biggest problem was Colin is too nice. He charges me $100 for alignment which is absurd if you ask me. I go there for the alignment and expertise...which is worth well over $100. Then if I would come back within 3-4 months, he would do a check or toe adjustment for $50ish. How many shop have you had that problem with?
