R.A.S. Performance

Performance, started in 2007 by two young men, Brian Gerdts and Anthony “Big Red” DiDomenico, sharing a common vision: to build and service the best, the boldest, and most importantly, the fastest street machines in the Five Boros. Starting with little more than a couple of tool boxes, an old black Trans Am, borrowed garage space, and pure hunger, these two sharpened their craft. Using a combinat

ion of vintage and state-of-the-art equipment, they provide exactly what most hot rods and muscle cars need: old school service with cutting edge precision. is a full-service outfit; unlike most of the quick-lubes and “parts-changers” out there who look at a Holley carb like its from Mars, Brian and Red can keep your vintage machine running like new. From stock cruisers to full-tilt street machines, small-block Chevrolets to the most uncommon of vintage engines and everything in between, they have the expertise and talent to keep your wheels running better than new. While we mostly service older American cars, we have no problem working on 4x4’s, Jeeps, and late model vehicles. We were one of the first garages in the City to offer the now-hot satin black paint. And unlike most “specialists”-type shops, R.A.S. Performance offers reasonable pricing for its top-notch work, just like “the good old days.”
