    Talking Hocking Racing Shop!!

    When i bought my onetonner 3years ago i became aware how crap my previous mechanic really was!After a heap of searching i was finally recommended Derek Hocking at HRS.I have been taking the beast their now for just under 3years and i am amazed at how reliable and powerful a little 308 can be!I wont let anyone else near my motor now.Derek is also the most genuine,honest and skillfull mechanic you will find.Thanks HOCKO,keep up the good work!

    I think you might find an interesting thread going on in the LS1 forum.

    He doesn't sound so crash hot to me after reading that thread.

    Considering he was operating without a license, got arrested, has had numerous downpayments placed on work from many different owners, all to be told they pretty much won't be getting it back.

    Yeah, he's got great service. I didn't know he was back in business, I thought the business went into receivership. Micks, Sam's and Marrano's performance are much better legitimate and trustworthy options.

    You might want to check out the Ls1 forums, there is a big thread on this Hocking dude. People getting ripped off on parts, money ( $50,000) and all sorts of other stuff. Sounds like a genuine bloke to me.
