I’ve been a client of Kris’s for 4 years. I live in Idaho and own a King Sand Car that has a highly modified Hayabusa Turbo Race Motor. After struggling for a few years to have other “experts” attempt to tune, I turned to Kris. To begin Kris is very patient and listens carefully to what you share and the desired outcome. After a few calls and discussions he made the case to upgrade an outdated ECU and was highly confident he could tune the car to eliminate many of my concerns. I trailered the car to him and delivered it. In addition, he found other things on the car that I have not known about and made recommendations to correct. His team is very effective.

Chris did a phenomenal job on the Dyno tuning the car and delivered to me a well running car. There was a few follow-up tweaks that we worked out together and today I’m happy to report the car runs phenomenal each and every time I take it to the dunes. It’s been three years now, and I smile every time.

Thank you Kris and Team!

I’m nearly 800 miles away and I would go to Chris with any of my car issues now and in the future.

Whether you have a straightforward situation or in my case, but I would say it more challenging tuning situation, I’m confident that Chris will work professionally and methodically to help you out.

I am amending my review of DRS - as i found some pretty crazy things as i have opened my own private shop after this nightmare. First off, a well put together car shouldn't need track support or constant work to keep it going too. You should be able to sort out a car and send out for practice without any major issues. Collect data, and come back without any major hiccup.

I was a long time customer of DRS when i moved to California, i brought my lotus over to DRS and wanted to build a street car that i could take to the track. Following there lead i used them to build my Lotus Exige, but had many issues with the car after following there direction. I could count on two hands how many issues i had with the car and quite a few ruined weekends racing chasing gremlins (oil leaks, tune issues, fuel issues, etc). Also i was religious on taking the car from the track and back to DRS to find the gremlins of the build.

Finally, DRS offered me to buy one of there other customers 211 moving to a new class of racing. The car looked well sorted, needless to say it had its own set of issues, the largest being a hurt motor with a VERY aggressive tune to boot. Car made it to two sessions, again same regiment - car goes to the track and back to DRS to look over the car and make sure shes ready for the next track day. On the second outing, i pulled the car off the trailer and the car was smoking heavily off the trailer - mind you the car was just at DRS to be gown through, a paid service.

Car was returned to DRS, where they miss diagnosed the turbo housing (seal), and finally found the motor was hurt missing hole chunks out of the camshafts and rockers. As i have been in the race community for a long time, when i wanted to inspect the car i brought other shop owners to take a look of the issue. DRS never actually went through the car and pulled the heads, spark plugs, boroscoped anything, at the very least a compression test.

DRS stood firm the issue of the product was because i didn't hire them for track support, but that was not actually true. From the logs on the ECU it showed otherwise. Car was hurt period and if i paid them to go through and sort out any issues, the car should of been gone through.

Sorry to say i moved on from there shop - there decent mechanics for general repair of OEM built cars. There over there heads on the custom work. Be warned.

Took my '05 Lotus Elise to DRS for a new clutch and rear brakes. They walked me through multiple part options in terms of performance/longevity/price. Hourly rate was cheaper than the 'dealer'. Excellent service all around.

From specialized race car preparation and tuning, to routine service for your daily driver, this place does it all expertly. Great alternative to the dealer with their outrageous rates and their typically low-paid low-experience technicians. These guys know their s***, and will treat your car like it was their own.

Great race shop, I have not used this shop for service since I live in NY, but I have purchased race components for a K24 engine swap into a Lotus Elise and want to stop in and say hi to Kris since I was in the area.

I would not recommend going here, they are poorly organized and rarely return calls once they start work.
