I do my own oil changes, plug changes, etc. my dad and I typically do routine and not so routine repairs (from brakes up through engine/transmission replacement/repairs). Anything we don't have tools or time for (tires, windshield replacement are the most recent ones i can think of) we take to a local shop less than a mile from the track. Most performance related upgrades that he hasn't tackled before go to his friend that owns a shop in garfield. Diesel truck repairs go to a local truck place. The only time I've used a dealer was to get dealer specific parts, and I only used a chain store when Al made me buy new tires before I drove to VA last fall.
