His shop is every car guys wet dream... He won't sell you what you don't need and his motors work very well. If you are looking for fabrication he is your man also. Also a great place to hang out and bench race..although he seems to be always working anyway. I would not hesitate to have any work done there.. Plus..he likes dogs...which is a high indicator in which I choose who to do busness with. His namesake is the black one..

What can I say,Bob is friend first,builder second. Once you meet him he's your friend and will help you anyway he can. I am proud to fly BG Racing on our car. I agree he does like dogs,(BIG DOGS,I MEAN DOGS THAT BLOCK THE SUNLIGHT) but more important the dogs like him. You can't fool a dog it either likes you or not! If you are thinking of having any work performed by BG,you won't go wrong,the service doesn't end when the car is out the door. Thanks BG, Mike

Met Bob a number of years ago and have been to his shop (complex) a couple of times just to visit and it is impressive it's clean, organized and dosen't seem as there is anything they cannot do there, as for Bob the guy, a lot of races I have been at that Bob and company have been at also, He always makes hisself available and is quick to help a racer in need asking for nothing in return he also spend's a good amount of time going around visiting with people he has met and/or helped over the years, always a stand-up guy and quick to help.
Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

What more can be said,you know you have succeeded in life when people name their dog after you The shop is definately someone's "wet dream",I get that feeling everytime I don't make it to bathroom.

I'm more of a reader here than a poster, but wanted to chime in The comments posted thus far are true and then some! I recently decided to build my first race car and was referred to Bob's shop. I really wanted to learn as much as possible and Bob has let me be as hands on as I can be traveling from VA. I've used his tools, welders, plasma and so on. He is patient and puts up with a lot of beginner questions that are probably annoying. The guys at the shop are all friendly as are the canines. The big one looks a lot like Bob actually..... He is good at what he does because he loves it. His statement of "customers become friends and friends become family" is true and that's important. I'll be proud to put BGR on my car when its done.... even though I have taken a fair amount of verbal abuse Thanks Bob. Mike

The first time I went there, I parked in his lot and when I opened my door, I was greeted by a charging 120 pound big black bear which turned out to be a "BIG DOG". Turned out that the dog had a friendly personality like Bob and walked me in to meet the guys in the shop. He has a good set up that I envy, and the only place he didn't show me was out back. "Hemi Fred" has made comments about that area and all the good times that he has had back there. That's something that I wont ask about. haha.
Larry,Max was only a pup when you first stopped by,he's pushing 220#.Just ask and I will take you behind the "hogpen" Ron,you and everyone are more than welcome to stop in anytime.Also thanks everyone for that kind comments,I'am both grateful and humbled by them..Keep in mind BGR is not about Bob George but about all the friends,family and racers that are part of BGR.,and to my late son Curt,I will always humble myself in your memory and forever carry on your philosophy of life and the legesy you left us with. Respect to all, Bob
