Default Alignment & Corner Balancing

Anybody recommend a quality alignment shop that also does corner balancing in NW WA, preferably north of Tacoma?

Thanks!

A couple of years ago I worked there for a couple of weeks, otherwise no. Why do you ask?

Sounds nice! How much of the summer do you spend on Stuart?

Yes, you can have this done at Brad's Custom Auto just north of Seattle.

I recommend Cantrell Motorsports in Bellevue - I've used them for almost a decade now for alignments and they do a professional & thorough job, including putting weights equal to your body weight in the driver's seat for setting the alignment.

TruLine of Bellevue and Seattle is considered to be the go-to by most track enthusiasts for corner balancing and alignment. I've been there several time and they clearly have a lot of experience with Vettes.

Dundon Motorsports in Gig Harbor might be a good option for you. These are guys that use to be at and were partners with Cantrell. I would bet you could get a discount if you tell them you attend track days at the Ridge. I have spoken to the owner at the Ridge a few times had he has offered me a discount to do the setup my Vette. I have also heard very good things about them.
