Angus Mechanical Repairs has been responsible for preparing and crewing for our Aussie Racing Car since our entry into the category.

I have to say that Aaron’s attention to detail and knowledge of what it takes to prepare, set up and develop a race car is second to none. Aaron’s ability to watch a car from the side of the racetrack, pinpoint the problems and implement resolutions to them sets him apart from the others.

I can confidently say that our strong results to date are as a direct result of our association with Aaron and his staff. I would highly recommend his services to anyone thinking about entering any motorsport category.

Darren Chamberlin

I am an extremely anal person about mine and my wife;s cars and until I met Aaron and the team didn't trust anyone or leave the cars unattended to have work done to them.

Angus Mechanical is the only place where I will happily leave the car to be worked on and have no need to check the work carried out afterwards. For me to say that its a big rap to them.

Thanks Aaron and team for all the help and I have no hesitation in recommending Angus Mechanical to anyone!
