Idk, they were taking resume's last week on facebook and looking for another person the way it sounded. Not sure what the deal is, if they are looking for an additional one, or a replacement.

Yea, I understand that. I just know a number of tuning shops around the metro area do some form of road tuning from time to time.

Yes, this I'm pretty sure is probably what the above mentioned shops do when they take a car out on the street for tuning.

Yep, right around $300ish sounds right.
