Carter Goldney

I started CARTSPEED GARAGE originally as motorcycle repair shop doing various engine builds on anything from ATV's to streetbikes. I switched focus to Automotive in 2024 and took it on as full time work. My work includes, maintenance and performance upgrades. My average week consisted of brake jobs, timing chains/belts, and suspension repairs, with bigger work on occasion including manual swaps.

At Fountain Tire I learned how to learn quickly and efficiently in a fast paced work environment. Diagnostic work was a big part of my day so I learned to quickly pinpoint issues and find definitive repairs. My daily tasks usually included repairs on brake, suspension and powertrain systems. For reference please call Bill Else at 604-814-0466

I apprenticed with Boost Barn for the duration of my level 1 Automotive Service Technician Program. There we built custom high power Subaru's for various purposes anything from drifting to offroading. After a few weeks of learning I was quickly put on big jobs such as full engine rebuilds, suspension work, exhaust/intercooler work, nitrous and even a few wiring harness installs. I can now confidently work on Subaru's systems and I believe it has also greatly increased my engine knowledge and their inner workings. Working here taught me to pay attention to detail and be proud of whatever work leaves the shop.

After demonstrating my ability to learn quickly I was hired to service Dirt bikes, Street bikes, ATV's, Quads, and UTV's. Working here taught me many new skills through various tasks such as, Brake work (lines, calibers, rotors, drums), Suspension work, Carburetor work, and Engine Work. I also got an intro into valve work as well as EFI systems.

In construction I completed various renovations of houses. My personal tasks included demo work, flooring, concrete, trim, and painting. I have been trained and have experience with tools such as a bandsaw, table saw, skill saw, jig saw, floor cutter and other common construction tools.

Working at Tirecraft I learned quickly how to work in a busy shop and was put right onto my own jobs. My tasks included, Tire changes, Tire rotations, Tire Balancing, TPMS work, and Tire Repairs (Both Patch and Plug).

At UNIWELD we completed big projects for the city of Surrey such as a 30' X 40' salt shed. My tasks included finishing (grinding, deburring, sanding), cutting metal using various bandsaws, cutting holes(drill press, Ironworker), I also got an intro into welding after hours learning how to TIG and torch to build go karts.
