Default Anouncement

Hi Guys, I just wanted to let you all know that I have left Champion Motors and have opened up CANADIAN CORVETTE PERFORMANCE with my good friend Steve Jr.

Before all the rumors fly, let me just put everything to rest by saying it was time to move on. Alot of things have happened in the past year, and it became more and more apparent that was time to stay closer to home.

I will continue to work and help Champion whenever they need me, this is by no means a nasty divorce.

Being on my own now allows me to build and tune your car, the same way I would do my own. Which is something that I’ve wanted to do for a long time, and was very hard when I was 100 miles away from the car. I’m going to stick to what I know best and that’s building fast, reliable supercharged C5’s and C6’s using A&A and ECS Supercharging kits. And the same goes for the guys without chargers, I’ve been down the road with many cams, heads and intakes-I like the N/A stuff too.

You guys and gals on the board have all been very supportive and I really appreciate it!

My contact info is as follows, 519-502-0915, if you cannot get a hold of me you can get a hold of Steve Jr @ 226-218-3278

Email is vettespecialists@hotmail.com

Thanks,

Arun.

WAY TO GO Arun and Steve

Can't wait for CANADIAN CORVETTE PERFORMANCE to do my heads/ cam and gears....

Congratulations on your new venture; opening your own business certainly is a mark of distinction.

Your achievements with your C5 IRS Vette last year I'm certain have been a valuable training ground with high performance Vettes.

I know that with your background, expertise and enthusiasm, your shop should make quite an impression in the Corvette comunity.

I wish you every success as you build the business Arun. Here’s to your success in the years to come.
