Alright, i know i'm just asking for trouble, but who can give a quick history of the major workshops that have had an effect on the VL scene.... I'd probably suggest if you like JPC... do a JPC bassed one and leave the other workshop info out unless you will be 100% unbiased... So, bassically i think we need. (i know i missed allot.. so feel free to add any other workshops) Bresciani - yeah they are first because they are sponsors... get over it. Rajab JPC APV Matooks SubZero PET MOTORTECH ( ) JSPEC - brief history.... Anyway.. keep adding if you want guy's.. but need some info on these places.. Achievements? history? size? contact details? etc... Once they are done we can get them all separate pages if people can be bothered... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

GUYS!!! how could you all forget ATS and NIZPRO??? they were both instrumental in getting the VL to where it is today??? i know im talking a long time ago, but these shops where the backbone of what we know today. VLGMH (ATS) and Ben Viceconte (ATS & NIZPRO), both originated from back in the mid 90s (Read 1994-95). Have a think about it.... Cheers, Mick.
