Information on Rasmussen?

Good day all. I have a quick question. I live in Southern Oregon and drive to Portland to Rasmussen for service. Can you tell me, from your experience, if they are a mod friendly dealer? I have been up there once for an ECU reprogram and a few small maintenance items. I hadn't done much to the car then. Now, I have a few more thing done, and I am wondering if they will cause any concern. I am headed up in a few weeks to have the clutch worked on. I seem to have one of the noisy throwout bearing problems.

Any thoughts? They seemed to be very helpfull last time and on the phone every time I have called them. I always talk to Ann.

The short answer is yes. They are mod freindly. There are some exceptions, but many of them know thier way around a race car, so they understand the "mod" thing. Ann has raced for years.

PM me or shooler for details (if you like) about the "exceptions"

Nope. Just a few small changes, nothing to noteworthy. Just wanted to make sure that I wasn't driving 5 hours and back for nothing. I like to cover my bases. Although I'm sure that my hubby wouldn't mind doing that particular conversion. :impatient

Thanks again for the information. We had the car up last week, and they did the clutch and replaced a defective tie rod. What a great service department. Ann is the best. They had our car for 10 1/2 hours Friday to get it all done. I can honestly say that it was worth the 4 hour drive each way to have the work done by a compentent and honest dealer.

Maybe next time we come up, we will be able to catch one of your club meetings or events. I didn't realize until we got home that you had a regular meeting the night we were there.

Anyhow, thanks again for all the information.
