Default Track Alignment in the New York area

I'm looking to have an alignment done for my C6Z06 using Hoosier R6 tires and would like to know if anybody can steer me to a shop on Long island or within 100 miles

Dave is a great guy and is usually lurking around this forum.
OR

Kurt @ Phoenix,

Both of these guys can get you setup and will do an awesome job.

Might be just outside your range but would be worth the trip. They're the best around for track set-up.

Any good shop can set your alignment. Tell them what you want and have them set it up for you. Make sure they tighten the cam bolts properly so they don't slip. You don't need a performance shop to get it right.

If any good shop can get it right then I shouldn't have to check to see if they properly tightened the cam bolts. I don't have to check mine becasue I know everything was done correctly.

Plus, I figure the OP already knows where the local chain dealer/shops are and probably doesn't need directions to Goodyear or Sears.

Lynmor Motorsport in Huntington is good shop that's set-up my cars for roadcourse. They are mostly a Porsche shop but have experience working on Vettes. Richie is the owner...great guy.

Phoenix is great out in PA but for local LI (I live here too) I have used Lynmor in Huntington Station. They did a fantastic job on my SCCA T1 Corvette and the prices were great too. Easy to deal wtih and really convenient. Close too!

Ive had too many alignments and tire balances go wrong (settings and damage), that I do it all myself.

If your a moderate to heavy track guy or do a street and track set-up, its well worth the efforts.
