Scott Siegel and crew moving to Cobb Parkway

[Vteckidd]

That’s right boys and girls, Decker, Jason, Shawn and I are moving to Forged Performance on Cobb Pkwy.

http://www.forgedperformance.com

I’d like to start by thanking all the WRXAtlanta folk for all the support over the last few years. We have really appreciated the friendly and supportive community here.

Forged Performance is one of the premier Nissan and Infiniti performance shops in the country. Not only have they built a number of record-setting Nissans and Infinitis, as well as some awesome Evos, but they have also campaigned very successful racing seasons in Redline Time Attack and NASA Time Trials. They offer everything from general maintenance, to race car fabrication and prep, wheel-and-tire sales, to track-support and driver-coaching.

Many of you got to see the owner of Forged, Sharif, ALMOST set the overall 4-wheel-vehicle track record at Talladega Gran Prix two weeks ago at the TS Time Attack. He took their FULL interior R35 GTR to a 1:00.7; just a tick behind a Grand-Am race car’s 1:00.6. We will be running quite a few Forged Performance track events and I will continue the Siegel Racing Driver Education Clinics. We’re hoping to have an event at CMP soon.

Forged has a stellar reputation among the Nissan and Infiniti crowd, but they hadn’t dipped into the Subaru market, until now. Decker, Jason and Shawn have been setup with all the tools to provide the same ultra-professional services at Forged as they have in the past.

Forged’s load-based Dyno-Dynamics dyno lets us not only make full-rpm sweeps like an inertial dyno, but we can also hold the car at any rpm which makes tuning certain types of engine management very quick and precise. Many engine builders suggest this type of dyno and loading for engine break-in. The Dyno-Dynamics dynos also tend to require less tuning adjustments when going from the dyno to the street than many other dynos. It also has a feature that I’m VERY excited about; we will be able to put boost and AFR plots on all the dyno sheets. Look for a WRXAtlanta Dyno Day and some exciting tuning pricing options coming soon.

I want to personally thank all of you here on wrxatlanta.com for all the support over the last 6 years, and I hope to see you all on Cobb Parkway soon.

Thank you,
Scott Siegel

[TIGERJC]

[Ziptied]

[Big Baller]

Siegel you might want to pm paul and julio to see if this can stay up

They are going to be vendors....just don't worry about it

[Bus Driver J]

mmmHmmmmmmmm!!!!!

[Tracy]

So is this a TS move or just the rest of crew move?

[Big Baller]

My understanding is that it is Siegel, Jason, and Decker.

[Vteckidd]

So is this a TS move or just the rest of crew move?

rest of the crew , TS is staying put according to Doug on WRXatlanta

[Tracy]

Damn, Scott moves around a lot...

[Vteckidd]

Damn, Scott moves around a lot...

he gets AROUND

[Tracy]

I think it's funny. I mean I wish him luck because he has a family, but other than that, I don't think he will last here either. Just my opinion of course. He's not really cut out for the business of working on cars. Yea. I said it. I mean it in the nicest way possible though.

[Revmaynard]

Good luck Jason/Decker! We gotta have a cookout or something again!

[Vteckidd]

Hell i would move back , its closer to his house! hehe

[Tracy]

Good answer.

DAMN! Are you referring to Scott?

[Tracy]

Yes. Scott. Someone had to say it. Might as well be me. This forum is dead anyways.

[bigdare23]

Moving on up, to the eastside...

[Tracy]

Ha Ha! Moving on up? More like moving on over continuing his path of destruction.

[Vteckidd]

Moving on up, to the eastside...

MOVING ON BACK, TO THE EASTSIDE, he was here once already when we worked together at Batlground.

Oh Tracy come on lets play nice , only me an you can hate each other

[Revmaynard]

Isn't Marietta technically the Westside...?

[Big Baller]

MOVING ON BACK, TO THE EASTSIDE, he was here once already when we worked together at Batlground.

Oh Tracy come on lets play nice , only me an you can hate each other

I'm going to bet she does not want to play nice.

[Tracy]

I am playing nice. I am just telling the truth. Ok I will take out the path to destruction part and try to be more politically correct. NOT.

[bigdare23]

Isn't Marietta technically the Westside...?

*slaps forehead*

[Vteckidd]

I am playing nice. I am just telling the truth. Ok I will take out the path to destruction part and try to be more politically correct. NOT.

I told him to open his own shop, he would be much happier i think. Oh well, Decker will be close by now, i love that kid, no homo

[Tracy]

Decker is a nice guy. Best of luck to him. Who wants to make some bets? I don't have money so it will have to be something else, but I bet SS will last at Forged 1 year and 3 months. Maybe right after the race season ends.

Who knows. Maybe he'll find another Mike in the European crowd and get Sharif 'n them a big ole rig to go to the races in as a housewarming present.

Oh and you have to have talent and a work ethic to open your own shop. No way that would make him happier.

[EmminoDaGreat]

Damn, why dont we all just combine and make one shop that pays me millllllllllllllllions

[Tracy]

Damn, why dont we all just combine and make one shop that pays me millllllllllllllllions

Because we would all be working and Scott would go home at 4:30. You'd get over it pretty quick.

[EmminoDaGreat]

Everyone has bedtimes ya know.

[Vteckidd]

Lol damn hahaha


Batlformainspeed racing

Kinda catchy

[SleepingTalon]

LOL, she hasn't said anything that isn't true. It's like musical chairs, I swear. I bet it was a totally random move, like he went "all in" at a poker tourney, and that was a stip of the final bet. "You lose, you must switch jobs...AGAIN". Yup, my final answer.

[siegelracing]

I worked at a dealership for 3.5 years, under 3 GMs and 40+ other people leaving. I worked at Batlground until Tracy made it clear that my desires didn't matter (her perogitive to decide, but my perogitive to leave...) and I've worked at TopSpeed until I got uncomfortable. At NO point have I ever left a customer hanging, and I stayed at Batlground a week or two (I don't remember) longer than planned to help y'all out.

MANY people on this board have been working with me at 9 or 10 or midnight... or later for that matter

As a husband and father I work hard and long when necessary, but refuse to setup my life to work late everynight....

Siegel

[Ziptied]

He has a better reputation around here than batlground does, just sayin.

[Big Baller]

Judging by how busy they are at BG I'm not sure they are really worried about what you think.

[Ziptied]

Did I say "in my opinion"? No, I said his reputation is better here in SC.

[Big Baller]

Did I say "in my opinion"? No, I said his reputation is better here in SC.

To correct you again, his reputation is better among the subaru crowd.

I know both of them really well, Scott was my codriver on One Lap of America and Dan and Brandon were in my wedding I'm pretty unbiased.

[TIGERJC]

Just wish the moved would've happened after my car was done at the shop

[Ziptied]

So, you are correcting me by putting words in my mouth? I never said subaru crowd.

Siegel

Yea. I always make my feelings clear. Why would your desires matter again? I totally forgot since it's been so long. Did you invest all of your life savings to start a shop and keep it going for 7-8 years or something that I might actually care about? You want to own a business, you have to work. Tis all. I assume that's why you haven't opened up your own shop yet.

Oh let's not get off topic. This thread is about you leaving TS to go to Forged, so I thought you left TS because it was closer to home? THE PLOT THICKENS!

[Tracy]

He has a better reputation around here than batlground does, just sayin.

Well that is nice. Not sure you are the authority on that, but cool. I'm not going to argue your stats.
