Any of you mates from the land down under ever hear of RDP motorsports. My friend and I visited their new speed shop in Painesville Ohio. Steve and Jason were nice guys and took alot of time with us. Both are Aussie's and said they did build extremely powerful engines for drag racing in Austrailia. My friend maybe taking his Cobra for some engine tuning, but wanted to find out feedback from anybody who had work done from them.

427supr, sorry don't know anyone that has used them...but I know one of the guys that works for RDP in Brisbane(Australia). Haven't had any work done by them yet, but they have a comprehensive setup that includes a dyno shop, exhaust shop, fabrication facilities etc. I would certainly not hesitate to use the Brisbane shop.

Ill fill you in. Steve started rdp in redcliffe in brisbane years ago primarily working on ford motors, he sold the business and moved to usa to start up over there, he built some super tough machinery. Rdp stands for redcliffe dyno performance , the new owner of the business glen cunningham is the secretary of my other club [ mackay rod and custom club] he also owns coalroc contractors employing about 150 men in the coal mining industry. Rdp still operate in redcliffe and glenn has opened a second big workshop in mackay, hes a holden chev man and coalroc is the naming rights sponser for our biannual mrcc motor show coming up shortly, hes not short of a buck. Glen races a couple of 12 sec street commodores at palmyra dragstrip flying the flag for rdp and i love smoking them in my cobra. Havent heard much about steve since going o/s, but he knows his stuff. Good to hear from someone whos run into him, it really is a small world. Regards tomcat:lol::lol::lol:
