His final day with Group 2 will be Friday, November 14th.

Chris has worked on some of the most important vintage and racing cars in the region, including AC Cobras, Alfa Romeo GTAs, Greenwood Corvette, and vintage Formula 1 cars by Ferrari, Tyrell, McLaren, as well exceedingly valuable road going Ferraris such as 512BB, 250, Daytona, 330 and 365 models. “I had an amazing run for the past 13 years as the in-house suspension and chassis specialist, and have developed many fantastic life-long friendships and business relationships in the process,” said Chris Benny. “The customers who’ve allowed me the opportunity to work on their extremely special vehicles and to earn their trust is what motivates me to continue providing my expertise and personal service on a more individualized basis.” Chris will also continue to pursue and develop his on-track passions as an instructor with Proformance Racing School (proformanceracingschool/) and as an amateur racing driver. Chris has fostered long-standing relationships with partners such as Goodman Racing, Gerber Motorsports, Alfa of Tacoma, to name only a few, and has become their sole provider of street and race car chassis setup work.
