Comes across as a fairly nice chap too, even in the older video with the Ford GT.

He named Wyatt, who is Carrera Gt and 918 certified. I worked next to him at Porsche in Texas. I have never known anyone more dedicated to motorsports than him. It was an honor to not only work next to him but to call him a friend. I'm proud of what he's accomplished!

This guy is so well spoken, and he knows literally everything about cars.

I know 275k is a hell of a lot of money to the vast majority of people but to get basically a brand new CGT for 275k (+ cost of the car) is a steal in my mind I really though this was going to be something crazy like $1+ million.

I was thinking the same thing. I think that may be underpriced to get some promotion at the beginning.

Absolutely mind blowing the work that goes on in that shop! I remember that video where you two went on a quick Jaunt with the two ford GT’s and was so cool seeing such unique spec’s together! Hopefully one day, you can add one of these beautiful CGT’s to the collection! In due time! Would be a perfect match for you, wish Damon never sold his!

as somone who worked a block over from GRP in bburg Indiana, i have gotten the luxury to meet graham and you can really tell the amount of passion he has, its awesome to see shmee having a collab. Good video as always!

Thank you for always posting when I really seem to need it ... had a not so great day (and week) but your genuine upbeat and positive vibe always seems to help

Love to see how the Rahal enterprises keeps growing. Was lucky enough to live in Columbus Ohio for a few years where Rahal is from, and to follow his racing endevours.

This video was awesome, seeing him show live examples of his level of detail was super entertaining

Very professional and elaborate work. This is a fantasy , i would love to see it when it is done 🥰

Carrera GT - My favorite car of all time. Great seeing the car in pieces, wow, what a piece of workmanship. It would be great to see this car fully assembled in the new colors. Cheers, Shmee!

So much love for Details in cars and for bringing up for that kind of perfection is just heartwarming

Again, the custom dollies for the suspension units. Brilliant. Not on the floor. Everything clean. Very impressive.

You've gotta admire a man, who with all these cars around, him loves his classic Mini.

Wow. What a setup! Thanks for the tour Graham. You really care about your craft. Well done.

So cool to see you back in Indy and at my favorite Cars and Coffee spot too! It's always cool to see the different projects they are working on when I visit.

Best car I ever drove (to date). Certainly the best sounding car I ever drove. Definitely one for the collection Tim in future. What a dream garage there, 918, CGT and Singer!

I was lucky to have met Bobby at Loudon when Textron was with his team. We were in the Textron box. Nice guy. Graham seems to be stand-up guy, too.

Greatly appreciative that places like this actually exist for those who really want to keep up with their cars👍

Yeah one of the better videos you have done recently. Mainly because you were interviewing, fact finding and coaxing the story out of the guy. FairPlay for you letting him being the story here, it was fascinating, his operation is amazing isn’t it.

Graham Rahal Performance, thank you for taking care of the Porsche Carrera GTs the way they should be. XJR15, damn. also Graham is a seriously cool dude as well. have to say Tim this has been one of fav Shmee150 vids, thx mate.

Cool to see you toured GRP and welcome to Indianapolis!

Thank you Shmee for such amazing content. Loved this one👍

GRP putting Zionsville on the map! Glad Shmee could come and help spread the word

I always like it when someone delivers a service and they do it as well for you as they would for their perfectionist selves. 'Treat others the way you like to be treated'... or rather 'treat my car the way you would want yours treated'. That's refreshing when usually they're about 'minimum effort, maximum squeeze'.

DOOOOOOOOOO IT !!! get one and have it in lambo green !!!!!! oh and next time ask whats with the race-car mounted on the wall in the workshop !!!??? that race car was for me the most fascinating / coolest part !!!!!!

Thanks for this one Tim, Graham is such a cool guy and doing amazing work. It did make me sad though because DDE Damon sold his CGT, and it is my absolute dream car.

Love, love, love anything with the Carrera GT in it, great video Shmee! My mouth dropped open when you turned the camera and showed the Jaguar XJR-15, those things are hard to find! I am honestly surprised to see one sitting there, even in that garage!

Even more crazy is the fact that not too long ago you could've bought a CGT for that money

Everything they discussed all in for only $275k? That is extremely impressive! I mean you could go after a high mileage less than perfect example and have it completely done to your color specs, modifications, with everything serviced, reconditioned or replaced for brand new parts. This seriously might be the best super/hyper car bargain for one of the best cars ever made. Obviously it would have to be straight piped with no cats, tuned to get as much power from the engine as possible. Then painted a slightly lighter version of dark blue metallic, with black or a charcoal leather and tartan style blue inserts for the seats with a blue and white stitch. Some custom smoked clear with polished barrel HRE wheels, calipers done in a lighter blue from the seat insert with either white or etched lettering on the brakes. Then everything just polished and put back to as new and gorgeous. Incredible work Graham, the work looks to speak for itself and I hope you have all the success and future business you can handle.

What an amazing place. I love Graham's attitude about quality. Fantastic. BTW, not sure if he knows, but a friend of mine owns a car that belonged to Graham. It's a Honda NSX. Yes, it's badged Honda. It's a beautiful car that is now in Pennsylvania and being very well cared for by someone with the same love for cars. Very cool video!!! I'm also guessing this was a big hint at a new vehicle for you stable.

Nice CGT. However if the coolers aren’t leaking or damaged, generally a good Ultrasonic cleaning and fin straightening/debris removal will bring them back to new condition.

Wow, awesome shop and work that they do, Graham is that type of car guy one could listen for hours!

Graham seems like such a good dude, this is a great vid - thanks for sharing this Shmee!

Wow, Rahal Performance set up is incredible. You just love to see it!

The detail they go into with the carrera gt is unreal. Great place.

What a brilliant place to stop! You have a great way of finding these hidden gems!

I drive past this building every day and go to the car meets and they are always amazing

Indy is in my backyard! I love that Tim is all over! Hope you enjoyed your time in Indiana Shmee!

Fantastic shop and video, thanks again Shmee.

Looks like Top High End Perfection ! Chapeau to Graham Rahal !

Excellent content! Thank you for sharing this, unreal.

My grandpa was a Porsche mechanic for 35 years. He was the only mechanic in the St. Louis area who was certified to work on it. He basically went back to school for 6 months. He was fortunate to be able to drive one for a client. Scared the piss out of him. Such a beautiful car.

One off my favourites this upload , and wow I was thinking this is going to be a stupid price for all that work but wow very surprised when he said 275 ish !! I bet he’s going to be very very busy 👍

I love the fact that he owns a Singer Porsche and handles all of those Hyper Cars, but he has a special place in his heart for an original Mini Cooper. A genuine car guy 👍

Nice video, this dude is obviously a true professional and a legit petrolhead. I enjoyed listening to him and looking at the work that is being done at his facility. As soon as I can afford it, I’ll commission a CGT from him, that is after I have a singer 911 cooling down in my garage 😂

Fantastic business. Surprised by the short turnaround and great value.

I literally live five minutes away from there 😭I wish I knew you were in town

Wow, some amazing shop for top quality work.

Love all your uploads Tim, but this was my favourite for a long time. Would love to see you invest in a CGT would be a serious addition to the shmuseum

They host there own cars and coffee events throught the year and consistently bring the craziest cars between a McLaren speed tail and a McLaren f1 gtr too the holy trinity of hypercars with a McLaren elva with the rare windshield option along with you name it its probably been thereat some point there by far my favorite car shows through the year

Ok.... The CGTs were a treat but holy cow a XJR-15, super cool!

This is so cool. It’s similar to what Salomondrin did with his CGT years ago when he turned it into Rubystone Red.

I like this workshop!

Graham is a great guy and a real car guy. Be sure to also follow him racing in the Indycar series.
