Non dealer service recommendations-SF Bay Area?

My 2007 Vantage will soon be out of warranty and I am looking around for options on service in the South San Francisco Bay Area. I would like a shop that is performance orientated since I track the car and am considering several mods once it is out of warranty. Does anyone have any suggestions or experiences to offer? Thanks!

Cole European in Walnut Creek still svcs AM, they simply are not an AM dealer anymore. They also stock AM parts from what I hear.

I would recommend BR racing in Los Gatos. They are very capable of doing the yearly service and I have used them to install my RSC products

Robb/BRRacing-- How many Aston-Martins are you servicing ?
What type of modifications/upgrades are you doing? I know your are a RSC dealer, are there other lines you carry or recommend for AM's?
I tend to track my car monthly and am looking for the best performance value--I do not need to be wasting money when I am burning through tires and brakes!
I look forward to your response.

Klittlehale,
got your PM but i can't respond since i don't have enough posts.

BR racing did all of my upgrades and i was happy with their work. I had them install the cats/exhaust and they pulled the ECU for me. The power upgrade was noticeable but it's not close to the 4.7. Which was my motivation to move up. After driving the 4.7 you can feel the lower torque which the 4.3 lacks. If you are going to keep the car i would rc'd the upgrades because it made the care more responsive but if want 4.7 power then either upgrade or get the supercharger.

I just had BRracing install H&R springs on my V8 Vantage and was very pleased! Bruce and Robb were very attentive and thoroughly explained things, which I appreciate. And the mechanic did a very good job. Definitely going back to have them install my spacers and other future mods.
