Training school

My son wants to learn high performance tuning and chassis dyno testing - anyone know a good technical school in the Midwest area that would teach these courses?

I am an alumni of Central Missouri State University in Warrensburg, MO (now it is University of Central Missouri). They have a 4 year program in Automotive Technology and Management. It is one of a few programs like it in the US. I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to get into the automotive business. I graduated with a BS in Automotive Technology and I went on to do an MS in Industrial Management. It is an EXCELLENT school with TOP NOTCH professors. If your son doesn't want to do a 4 year program he can always get the AS in Automotive Technology and go from there.

BTW, there are other programs out there that focus more on "hot rods" or "racing" but I'm biased.
