SpeedShopNetwork Master Prompt

Create a cinematic automotive culture website focused on helping talented mechanics discover exciting performance shops and helping performance shops attract great builders. The website should feel like a hybrid between a car culture media site, shop discovery platform, and recruitment network for mechanics.

The visual style should be inspired by automotive racing culture, with:

- dark theme background (charcoal or matte black)
- bold typography
- large high-contrast photography of performance cars and workshops
- dramatic lighting
- cinematic presentation similar to a racing documentary website

The site should emphasize speed shops, hot rod builders, fabrication shops, drag racing teams, drift shops, diesel performance builders, and custom car shops.

The tone should appeal strongly to car enthusiasts and mechanics.
