Automotive performance fans from across the state of North Carolina descended upon the hallowed grounds of Petty\u2019s Garage this weekend to learn how the experts at this high-performance automotive shop keep blowing the doors off their competition.<\/p>\n

Over 200 car lovers lined up their high-quality machines for this speed shop\u2019s very first Performance & Restoration Workshop. During this training session, attendees had an opportunity to take a tour of Petty\u2019s Garage while learning more about quality frame-off restorations, proper suspension setup for a smoother ride and better performance, the steps necessary to build a beast of a motor as well as how the body shop team is able to design and paint those signature Petty rides.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis whole event was a really cool one because we met our goals of showcasing the wide range of projects that continue to occur at Petty\u2019s Garage, as well as proving just how skilled and knowledgeable our tech guys are here,\u201d said Design Engineer Bradley Sisson. \u201cTo top it all off, we are opening our doors up to a few fellow automotive junkies who still don\u2019t know about Petty\u2019s Garage.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMy friends and I decided to come down here from Summerfield, N.C. to check out all the great stuff that Petty is building in terms of all the high-performance and new age muscle cars that they are both designing and selling,\u201d said Sean Dwyer.<\/p>\n

\u201cI actually wanted to come down here and meet some of the techs while learning more about the new techniques that they are using to both build and restore these machines,\u201d said Clint Babcock.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have always been a fan of Richard Petty, and as a result I have brought a few of my babies here to let the skilled staff keep them at their best,\u201d said Jerry Parham. \u201cThat is exactly why I wanted to show my support by attending this event.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Petty's<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are so happy that the first event of this nature was such a success here at Petty\u2019s Garage,\u201d said CEO Russ Stellfox. \u201cAfter seeing the excitement that was created at this event, we are already ready to start planning the next tech day.\u201d<\/p>\n
