Thumbs up Brent Hunter from Hunter Motorsports Saves the Day !!!

I can't speak more highly about Brent Hunter from Hunter Motorsport.

I was looking to borrow a race Suit for a Kids Presentation at a local Public School and without hesitation he offered up his personal Race Suit, Helmet, Gloves, Shoes and any other Props/Racing gear in his shop.

What a great guy..... It's events like this that make me realize he's not just a great mechanic but a great Guy.

He's going to help make 100 little kids super happy!

Thanks Brent!!!

Now I still have to find a "Piston Cup Trophy" lol

I took my car to Brent last spring, was very impressed with him and his work. When a man is willing to show you around the shop and talk about the various projects at hand, sharing his passion for Porsche, it says a lot to me.

Class act, good on ya Brent!

Brent is fantastic. I really like his expertise and very friendly and helpful manner. We are blessed with a number of top-quality indies in the GTA and Brent is definitely amongst the very best.

+1 for Brent, and the fact that he is also passing on his vast knowledge and passion to his young protege - Ricky

okay that is harsh .. I can see you are very frustrated but that is not the Brent we all know .
It sounds like your car is not working as expected and we all get that this is a frustrating experience. Especially when the guy you are trying to get a hold of is busy in the busiest time of year getting cars ready. As the clutch is internal there is no way you know if he did not use new parts. ( which i highly doubt he used old ones ) .
Sounds like a few things arent working which is not uncommon when the whole motor and transmission have to come out of your car.

Just sounds like you need to connect and get things sorted.

i think its very dangerous accusing someone of fraud on an open forum when you have no proof , i think the person being sued could be you if you do not step very carefully.

I would suggest deleting your post and instead , maybe asking does anyone know the best way to get a hold of him ?

Besides .. I am sure there are two sides to the story.

Just for added context I don't use Brent and am not a big fan . So i just chose to go elsewhere, as is my right and i have my reasons. But i know he does have a stellar reputation and does excellent work , so be careful where you wade in.

Lelz that post. Likely what happened is the car needs more work and he's upset it wasn't done for free
