    actually right now we are getting ready to assemble a drinan/cicconi supermod that belongs to jon gambutti out of new jersey for ISMA racing this year.....the frame has already been sandblasted and painted. the front and rear ends are in place.....motor has been rebuilt by a shop out of north carolina......winters being real hard on us this year so things are slowed down. scotty and i just came back from the chili bowl too. i think we will get back to things soon.....many thanks go out to kevin marcorrelle on his work in the reassemble..hes checked every single bolt .....safety wired all,hes a perfectionist......kyle thistlewood has cleaned all the oil tank and pump and every fluid line in car.....without these guys just couldnt do it period......ill try to post some pics soon but lost my i-pad to a thief and the pics are hard to do w/o it..........jim:)
