There was Road Track Rally (aka RTR) at Truganina, who were also forum members & sponsors, but can't find their website.


They're no longer around.

They shut the shop up a couple of years ago from memory.

Nice people, Trent and Cat are lovely to deal with.

And there are a lot of people who love Trent's work, I have no doubts that he has the skills there.

BUT, I found that when it comes to an ECU he's not familiar with/doesnt like, he doesnt seem to be able to just say "no, not my thing"
which can lead to a lot of wasted time from both sides.

I don't begrudge him or his work at all, but i'd have much preferred him to have just turned me away on day one, rather than promise a decent tune that never eventuated.
