We just moved from Germany to Leavenworth, KS. Can anyone recommend a mechanic in the Kansas City area?

Thanks,

Joe, get in touch with Karl Wilen at rennsportkc.com; all you need to know, say hi from me.

The KCPCA is a great bunch; very track oriented on one side, social on the other and lots of autocross if that's what you're in to.

Can't help, but I guess "we're not in Kansas anymore" doesn't apply....

John Clark at Clark Motorsports - 816-356-2639. He is the only one I would trust with my Twin Turbo - a superb mechanic!

I have had some long distance dealings with Karl. As per Kai's recommendation, top notch all of the way.
