The Automotive Systems technology Program at Southwestern Community College visited Passion Performance and Cashiers Service Center in the Cashiers-Highlands area late last fall.

"Our students gained valuable information on performance applications," said David Myers, coordinator of SCC's automotive systems technology program.

After touring the facilities, students learned about after-market performance and observed tuning of a vehicle. Passion Performance is the nearest high-performance shop west of Asheville.

"Students learned how to program vehicles and how that affects the performance side. They also learned how many vehicles you can get through a small shop,” said Myers.

Myers plans on returning to Passion Performance every semester to give students the opportunity to gain new experiences with high-performance vehicles.
