We strive to deliver the highest quality service, at competitive prices, while keeping customer relationships on a personal level. Chris Castro, the shop manager, head mechanic, and fabricator, has worked on cars since the ripe age of 7! Chris' father Saul has owned and managed our shop for the past 35 years. He's been a great mentor to Chris, and taught him all most of what he knows about automotive maintenance and repair. Chris has a variety of experience in the automotive industry, which makes him the amazing mechanic and craftsman that he is. His foundation in the industry began with his father automotive maintenance and repair. Over the years Chris absorbed every ounce of knowledge he could from his father and other mentors; applying that information and mentality to the performance and enthusiast car market. Moving forward, Chris and the team continually look to develop new and exciting products and services, to further benefit the car community. Chris also has a background in performance and fabrication, from his 3 years of work experience at Race Marque Systems (a pioneer in performance and supercharger applications for BMW). He’s pretty much seen and worked on it all, from building custom high compression race motors, to low compression, forced induction applications. Mr. Castro knows what it takes to build a fast and reliable car! His creative imagination and top notch fabrication skills, have allowed him to create custom performance solutions, for various automotive makes and models. Chris Castro’s drive and work ethic are the reasons why we have such a following! Chris Bialy, better known as "Polak" around the shop and on the forums, has worked tirelessly over the past 4 years to help bring the shop to its current, thriving state. With his variety of business experience in both the automotive and corporate worlds, Chris B. knows what it takes to build and develop a successful business. Chris is a wealth of information, especially when it comes to anything automotive. His passion for cars began very early in life, and it continues to grow each and every day. Polak spends much of his spare time researching new and exciting automotive innovations in order to stay ahead of the curve. His ability to market, advertise, and sell have helped develop the shop’s strong reputation. Polak used to manage a large European repair shop in Santa Monica, and has since applied the same values to his affiliation with Castro Motorsport. He was the first person in SoCal to successfully put an S52 motor (1996+ E36 M3 3.2L) in the E30 chassis, and will be the first person in SoCal to have an S54 motor (2002 – 2006 E46 M3 3.2L) in his E30 M3. He’s been working with Chris Castro and other industry gurus, to help turn automotive dreams into real life experiences! The passion and dedication that we share for cars, is the key to the shop’s success. Castro’s hands on ability and ingenuity, combined with Polak’s wealth of knowledge and business sense, make for a promising future for the shop. As we continue to grow, we continue to give back to the enthusiast community.
