Default need help in so fla!

Is there any corvette shops in so fla that can check out whats going on under my hood???

Many of you may remember my fight with a concrete pole. it has been 3 months and i just got it back. every time i went to pick it up they couldn't get it to start. i really don't think they know what they are doing there. go figure...a chevy dealer that doesn't have anyone who knows about corvettes. so finally i picked it up 2 weeks ago and mentioned to them that it smelled like the clutch was burning and they said it was normal because they did work on the clutch. i took it home and drove it out that night to the beach. i had to bring it back for alignment the next day. you'd think they would have checked that. so i take it in and go by to pick it up at the end of the day and they said when they went to pick it up from the allignment shop, smoke started coming out of the hood and couldn't give me the car back. after another week i picked it up 2 days ago. i don't feel like the car is tuned right, there is still a little of the burning clutch smell and the check engine light came on today. so i really don't want to take it back to them. i need someone who knows what they are doing so i don't have to keep going back to the shop. i'm sure my insurance will cover this anyway.
