THE BEGINNING OF B&P SPEED SHOP
B&P Speed Shop opened in 1973. Then the B and the P represented the first letters of the last names Jay and his partner in the business (now, perhaps is stands for Beards and Performance). Jay Peters, Inc. formed an S-Corp 1/1/2002.
Jay Peters started drag racing cars in high school, and competitively right out of high school. After breaking a few things here and there; engines, transmissions, etc., Jay saw the need to put together his winning combinations himself. Wrenching on his race car and a few others, B&P Speed Shop was open for business. The first piece of machining equipment he can remember buying is a valve seat machine.
