GSpeed was created 3 years ago, after Louis Gigliotti, son of current vendor and well known racer Lou Gigliotti. Family business can be tough, and it was best the two put family first and not work together.
After a two years of working behind the scenes, an opportunity arose to acquire Performance Speedtech, based at Motorsports Ranch in south Ft Worth, Texas. You may remember the black Gen2 Unlimited viper they campaigned in NARRA, and the Blue/Yellow GT3 Viper campaigned in World Challenge they maintained as well.
During the 2014 and 2015 season On the GSpeed side, Louis was responsible for the setup and aero on Marc Sherrins Championship winning NASA Texas TT1 C6Z, Mike Weathers Championship winning NASA Tx ST1 C6Z, and even a little stint at COTA, with a pair of Ford Fiesta Spec B cars.

Just a quick stop-in to give a huge thank you to Louis and his crew at G-Speed. I run a camaro in NASA TTU/SU and could not have the championships I have (double in 14, single in 15 with limited schedule) without the knowledge, skills and assistance.

Stats for 2015 (thanks to G-SPEED!!): 14 Events. 14 Wins. 5 Track Records.
Great guys to work with. My HSDE Z06 is treated no different than a full race unit. I have never rolled out of this shop after writing a check and feeling like I got a "second best" effort!!
Unlike some who have already posted great reviews on GSpeed. I DONT live in Texas, I haul from Broken Arrow Ok to have race services done!

Reason: Additional info
I've used this shop on more than one occasion while doing HPDE at Cresson. They were able to resolve any issues I've had and keep me on track.
Really friendly guys. They'll explain exactly what happened or what you need and will walk you in to the shop to show you any car issues and what was done.
I'd gladly use their services again without hesitation!
I stopped in at the shop a few weeks ago to pick up some AeroCatch latches for the hood. Very friendly staff, very knowledgeable! They've got my business!
Also, they have a few models of seats to sit in and try out, which is a big plus for me as a near-future seat shopper.
