Default We would like to build you a race car this winter

Anybody interested in building a new car? We have the experience, tools and resources to make your dream come true. Club day car? Time trial car? Wheel to wheel car? NASA? SCCA? FIA? Winter time is the best time to build new cars.


Here is some examples of our past work.









Let me know if we can quote one for you

Yes investing heavily in scratch tickets! Be back soon.
I think one of DRM's best marketing tools would be a thread of 4 wheeled alumni pics and bios. Your shop has some fabulous history.

Gary,
You would have loved hwy 12 yesterday. The door opened up on a semi full of pop cans. Pop cans everywhere for a mile. It was a group effort to get that cleaned up before rush hour.

Brian, our credit card machine has a EBT option. One would think it's illegal to use EBT cards on racing. But now days it wouldn't surprise me anymore.

John,
We are for sale.

Codeblack, get that tongue back in your mouth

Troy, have some fun at TWS

Everyone else,
Thank you for the kind words

Following up on a couple leads today. Since I posted this my life got very busy. Good and bad is all part of the dream

WOW! That chassis looks fantastic. Did Doug weld all of that!

Man, I wish I was young again and able to drive one of these new fangled race cars!

Thanks for taking time out of your busy schedule to show me around today. Good luck on the expansion project with the planing and building people. It'll be worth it in the long run.
