Lost another mopar great...

[Budnicks]

It's with a weighted heart, that I post the passing of Tom Tignanelli..friend and mopar great. Lots of people will miss his "character", and the immense
contributions to Chrysler and the mopar racing community. He passed on Wednesday, and his viewing is tomorrow, in Sterling Hts. Mi. He helped a lot of people with their mopars
thru the years. Shadowoods Racing has always been cutting edge.
Godspeed, my friend. Many will miss you.

For those wishing to pay respects..

I met Tom and Jim at MCACN in 2018. They had their '68 Barracuda there that year (as well as other years). They both shared great stories with me, and Tom invited me over to the back of the car and told me about a lot of the trick stuff on the car. Then he pulled a pair of torsion bars out of the trunk and handed them to me. They were made of titanium and were light as a feather. They treated me like an old friend, even though we had just met. They both sat in on the racers panel discussion each year. Great, down to earth guys. Their AWB UFO car was there in 2017.
Thanks for letting us know.
R.I.P. Tom - a real innovator.
